The National health services (NHS) provides a comprehensive healthcare services across the entire nation. It is considered to be UK’s proudest institution, and is envied by many other countries because of its free of cost health delivery to its population. Nevertheless, it is often seen as a ‘political football’ as it affects all of us in some way and hence everyone carry an opinion about it (Cass, 2006). Factors such as government policies, funding, number of service users, taxation etc all make up small parts of this large complex organisation. Therefore, any imbalances within one sector can pose a substantial risk on the overall NHS (Wheeler & Grice, 2000). This essay will discuss whether the NHS aim of reducing the nations need
Different people look at health in different ways. It can depend on their culture, environment, religion or age group. In order to have a clear understanding about how the people look at health, I have conducted a survey from a random sample of people who belongs to the above groups (e.g. people of different ages have been chosen).

In the past, managed care in the United States took the form of voluntary programs. Such programs date from about 1850, when managed care was provided chiefly by cooperative mutual benefit and fraternal beneficiary associations. Limited coverage by commercial companies was also introduced during that period, and subsequently many plans were established by industries and labor unions.
The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) passed in 1986 and it requires hospitals to provide care to anyone needing emergency healthcare treatment regardless of citizenship, legal status or ability to pay. It further stated Participating
The U.S. Health Services System (HSS) is a market based system in which individuals are required to purchase healthcare individually or through an employer. At this time the U.S. HSS is not available to everyone despite the industrialization that the nation has rather it is available to those who can afford it. The U.S. HSS is a broad mixture of services such as hospitals, nursing homes, long term care, emergency care, vaccinations and a myriad of other health related services. The U.S HSS is a mixture of public, private and voluntary programs funded by federal, state and private monies.
Health care systems are organizations that are formed to meet the overall health needs of the population. Health care is regarded as one of the leading cause in promoting not only physical and mental health but the well-being of the population. Legislation is implemented requiring government to offer services to all members of its society. The role of health services and the organizations that provide aid is to focus on the health of an individual and to uphold their human rights. According to WHO (2013), a “well-functioning health care system requires a robust financing mechanism, a well-trained and adequately-paid workforce, reliable information on which to base decisions and policies, and well maintained facilities and logistics to deliver quality medicines and technologies (World Health Organization; 2013).

Population Health Management is the management of the healthcare delivery system in a more clinically and cost effective way with a keen focus on quality and safety. Population Health Management is about applying the strategic management and interventions in a proactive way in order to reach the high utilizer population. Population Health seeks to create a continuum of care where care is not an outcome but it is a process instead. Care does not stop when a person walks out of the hospital or clinic, it is continuous and a warm hand off is required to take care of the extremely sick population. This initiative involves knowing the population you serve by conducting a health assessment and risk stratification. Then the population is further
I was the principal technology strategist and overall lead in one of my company’s engagements with one of the largest patient services organization in USA. This organization serviced pharmaceutical industry and had their patient services platforms for hire as and when they launched a high price drugs. Our hiring organization was part of a Fortune 40 parent company that had many similar divisions under its umbrella. Although our hiring organization made up only 2% of total revenue for the parent company, it contributed over 10% in profits; thus, it had a huge impact in the overall profitability of the parent organization.

Management as it relates to the health services realm requires a deep understanding of coordinating the delivery of healthcare. One must be able to utilize frameworks to recognize and develop solutions to challenges within managing healthcare. My desire to become a health services manager (HSM) spawns directly from this concept of identifying an issue and being able to present interventions and approaches to improve the overall quality of life for communities.
Fixing problems that face health care in many health facilities demand a system wide set of solutions. The systems used in these facilities must be assessed and redesigned to identify factors that will aid in the achievement of the set goals. The enormous task of achieving the goals should be undertaken collaboratively by all the key stakeholders, who include, health care professionals, planners and policy makers, administrators, payers, and patients and their families. These partnerships must begin with a common understanding of the problems together with a shared commitment to cooperate and work together to eliminate the problems. With this knowledge, therefore, an action plan for redesigning the health care system can be developed and later implemented. For a successful health care service to be realized, there are various factors which should be employed and which are not found in the traditional business setting. These include unique economic processes, proper regulatory requirements and the perfect quality indicators. This creates a need for every leader within the healthcare industry to create or develop unique skill sets that will harmonize both organizational leadership and the inter-professional team development. It is, therefore, important to understand the comprehensive approach to the management of patient care and also how the concepts of team development and organizational leadership support healthcare leaders in creation of a patient-centric
