Health Care Legislation

In a perfect world healthcare, public schools, and Universities as well as other necessities that are important to everyday life will be distributed freely to all people. We live in a world of consumerism, therefore in order to advertise for everyone in terms of healthcare there needs to be a good variety of options that allows the consumer and people in business to fairly succeed. One proposal that I came to agree with is the American Health Reform Act of 2013 (AHRA). I will give a critical review of what the American Health Reform Act entails and how it differs from the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for the better.

Despite the responsibility of healthcare being a power of the states, the national government created a market for privately owned businesses to provide insurance under an umbrella known as “Obamacare”. Obamacare was primarily comprised of the Affordable Care Act, or AFA. The Affordable Care Act, created by the Obama Administration, was passed in March 2010 under the premise that healthcare should be more available to American citizens. These target citizens being the over 50 million who were uninsured for various reasons before the passing of this legislation. They were able to do this by expanding the affordability through various regulations, taxes, subsidies, and other

It's very imperative for all members of the medical team to know the different types of laws and the consequences, so that all practices and treatments are precise and professional. No one would want a doctor to work quickly and inefficient, so these laws regulate the health care. If these laws are broken the medical team could lose their licensure and practices. Patients will also want to keep their health records confidential. The laws that govern the medical field help protect patients confidentially and rights. The laws also protect medical teams from getting sued when helping in an emergency situation, such as CPR on a victim in a serious accident.

In fact, the majority of U.S. workers first entered the business world working for small businesses. As of today, half of the U.S. adults either are self-employed or work for small business [2]. Furthermore, small company such as ImageFist Signs tends to attract talent who invent new products, implement a unique project’s design specifications, as well as a new solution for existing ideas. For instance, replacing neon lights to LED (Light Emitting Diode) lights, which is more energy efficient. On the other hand, according to the National Economic Council, the nation’s 28 million small firms employed 60 million people, accounting for half of the U.S. private-sector workforce [1]. In the same fashion, ImageFirst Signs has been in business for more than 20 years; which was only consisted for one or two employees at the beginning, until they have recruited 18 production employees alone up until today. Small businesses like this, have generated about 60% of new jobs since 1995; they have become the engine of economic growth and job creation as

At Well Care Hospital we strive to provide the best care possible and aim to set the bar when it comes to the way we interact and conduct ourselves from top to bottom of this hospital. In order to achieve this goal we must be aware of the health care laws and policies that exist, so that we can not only be in compliance, but exceed the standard. We also need to have set plans and committees set in place in order to achieve professional conduct throughout the hospital, educate our staff on the ethics of this hospital, and set in place governing boards that review and apply the rules Well Care Hospital has set up to protect our patients from medical negligence.

The United States Small Business Administration states that almost 50 percent of small businesses created will fail within the first year, while 66 percent survives during the first two years (The United States Small Business Administration, 2015). Envisioning the future of small business in connection with evaluating success or failure of small businesses is a captivating area for many researchers (Davidson & Kolfsten, 2003). A study on why small businesses in Mississippi have a higher failure rate than small businesses in New York. Stakeholders in Mississippi, particularly the small business owners, aspiring entrepreneurs, business consultants, lending corporation, investors, and customers would want to know the determining factors causing

The health care law creates on what operates in our health care system. And it fixes what’s occurred by presenting you with more health insurance opportunities and greater entrance to care.

Millions of Americans dream of starting their own small business; a prospect as exciting as it is frightening. Failure rates among small businesses are extremely high, though the thrill of big rewards vs. big risks continues to attract an increasing number of entrepreneurs each year.

Small and midsized companies thrive by growing, but few businesses demonstrate a capacity to grow in a meaningful way. Only 4 percent of the companies in the United States have annual sales that exceed $1 million. Of the 27 million businesses operating in this country, fewer than 700,000 have 20 or more employees, and 21 million of those businesses are operated as sole proprietorships without any employees.

Small businesses or SMEs can be defined as those types of businesses where the total number of employees is less than five hundred and such businesses have much fewer resources than large companies (Russell & Young, 2013). These businesses are a source of growth for the U.S. economy as they bring innovation and new opportunities for jobs in the market. These businesses represent approximately 99 percent of the US employer firms and contribute greatly towards the creation of new private sector jobs. Thus if these companies agree to adopt sustainable strategies, this will not only benefit them but also the entire American economy (Russell & Young, 2013). This makes the

The insistence from healthcare policy and regulations on better approaches to dealing with wounds in clinical practice still dominates the debates as to the primary influence that the better handling of wounds by clinicians would minimize the prevalence of HAIs and the associated costs of treatment (Aalaa, Malazy, Sanjari, Peimani &Mohajeri-Tehrani, 2012). This research dwells on developing a comparative analysis of the impact of continued training of clinicians in managing and handling wounds with a view to helping alleviate pain and facilitate speedy recovery against the general perception that standard care precautions in wound management if well implemented would accomplish significant objectives even without necessarily involving the continued training of nurses (Corbett, 2012). Guided by the research question ‘Does Wound Care Education for Health Care Provider (I) enhance wound care skills among healthcare providers, speedy healing of wounds and alleviate pain resulting from improperly treated wounds (O) among inpatient wound care patients (P) as compared to receiving wound care through the usual wound care routine from a healthcare provider who has not undergone wound care education (C)?’ the researchers will seek to establish the level to which continued or frequent wound care education for HCPs would facilitate the desired outcomes.

Small businesses have their work cut out for them when they first open up and release their product. There are many reasons as to why a small business may not be able to withstand the pressure of the market. A big reason for the bankruptcy is the owners do not know when they are in the decline phase of the sigmoid curve. The sigmoid curve has three phases, the learning phase, the growth phase and the decline phase. The problems usually start at the beginning of phase 3, the decline phase. This is where companies should be looking for ways to change their product slightly in order to get the customers attention again.The larger companies with high-valued managers mostly get out of the decline phase and back into the learning phase, but small businesses with a sole owner run into problems. Here, once the owner sees that his product is growing, he does not have the experience needed to know when he needs to change his product in order to become competitive once again.

Small to medium businesses (SMB) currently represent a significant portion of the United States economy. In 2016 over one-third of the US population is employed by companies with less than 100 employees. Unfortunately, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly half of these entities fail within the first four years of operation. As a result, many SMBs are in search of a successful model to guide them beyond sustainability toward profitability. Concerning success for SMBs, in research involving 3,800 SMB leaders, Vala Afshar highlights 6 key benchmarks indicating high-performing organizations:

Small businesses form a critical part of the economy and play a key role in the creation of jobs and

According to Forbes.com, “approximately 543,000 new businesses get started each month” (Nazar). That places the annual total of small businesses created at more than 6.5 million, in the United States alone. A small business is defined as an enterprise that has less than five-hundred employees. There is a total of about 28 million small businesses in the U.S. These businesses are responsible for the employment of roughly 50% of Americans. With an addition 6.5 million businesses being created annually, you would assume that this number is climbing, however, that is not the case. More employer businesses close per month than open up (Nazar). As calculated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the United States, the failure rate is as follows; after one year 21.2%, after two years 32.1%, after five years 51.2%, after ten years 66.6%, and after twenty years 79.6% of all newly created small businesses fail (“Entrepreneurship”). What is the reasoning being that? Why are so many small businesses struggling to keep their doors open? There are three main reasons why businesses that are new and lesser in size struggle to survive and often lead to the shutting down of these newfound entrepreneurships. These sources of failure include poor decision making due to a lack of experience, financial issues, and competition from other businesses.
