Question: Quality Decision Making: Cost-Benefit Analysis
For this assignment, evaluate and analyze the cost and benefit data you developed for the discussions in this unit and Unit 5. Remember that your cost-benefit analysis must relate to one of the following topics:
• Quality.
• Patient safety.
• Risk management.
• Regulatory standards.
• Compliance.
• Patient and stakeholder satisfaction.
Note that an effective cost-benefit analysis cannot be conducted in a vacuum and risk management cannot be effectively implemented within a silo (Youngberg, 2011). Rather, savvy health care leaders consider each cost-benefit analysis within the larger context of industry trends, regulatory requirements, organizational strategy, organizational capacity, and so on.
For this assignment:
1. Enter the cost and benefit data you developed for the cost-benefit analysis discussions into the cost-benefit analysis template, linked in the Resources.
2. Write a paper in which you do the following:
• Describe the organizational or program/department issue for which you have created the cost-benefit analysis.
• Evaluate the cost versus benefit according to the general guidelines outlined by Plowman's 2014 articles you read in the preparation for this assignment.
• Make a recommendation as to whether the benefits are sufficient to outweigh the costs of proceeding.
• Describe the systems-based context for your recommendations, integrating the cost-benefit analysis within the organization as a whole.
• Describe how the issue relates to the organization's vision, mission, and strategic direction.
• Provide a rationale that explains how your recommendations are appropriate for your organization's capacity and strategy.
