Part 2:

To understand allyship, one must understand that allyship is not an identity. It is a self-assigned descriptor. It is about a person attempting to support a marginalized individual or group. In order to accomplish this, one must understand one's own social position to comprehend power relations and how one's own subjectivity affects how we interpret and observe experiences.

Answer the following question:

What steps do you believe are most effective for an individual to become a TRUE ally?

Part 3:

Therefore, you must determine what are the crucial aspects that need to be covered. You must provide a clear recommendation and state why this is your recommendation. In addition to stating why you support this recommendation you must also address the cons to your recommendation. Note the purpose of this is to proactively address the likely concerns, but not discredit you recommendation.

In case study 1, you made a recommendation to your health systems senior management regarding whether the health system should take on an at-risk contract for Medicaid patients. Assume that your health system decides to take the at-risk contract with the state's Medicaid program, the executive leadership does not want to just hope that things will work out financially. Rather they want to take explicit actions to manage the Medicaid population to provide the best opportunity to have financial success. You have been asked to make recommendations to the executive leadership on how best to control the costs of the attributed Medicaid patients. Specifically, the leadership is considering purchasing select primary care practices that serve a disproportionate share of Medicaid patients. Would you recommend this? Why or why not? Discuss the risks of doing and not doing this?

The health system's past financial success has largely come from its hospital care and ambulatory surgery services. There is concern that if the health system is successful in control the total cost of care of the Medicaid patients that the hospital's inpatient and ambulatory surgery business will suffer. Discuss this concern. As you do so consider the following:

The share of the health system's inpatient and ambulatory surgery care than comes from Medicaid patients.
The degree to which the health system is operating near or well below its capacity for inpatient and ambulatory surgery care.

Threat Identification, Risk Analysis, and Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity

Oglebay Hospital is updating its risk management program. It is currently at the risk determination step, using the qualitative approach.

Oglebay Hospital is located in a flood plain. The facility has not had flooding in the past two years, but the nearby river overflows its banks every year. Although the city has discussed building a floodwall that would protect the hospital from the river, this is an expensive proposition. As a result, the only protection it has received up to this point is from good-hearted residents of the city who build a sandbag wall when there is a threat. When the facility had been flooded in the past, it had not flooded above three inches on the first floor. There is no basement.

The first floor of the hospital houses the lobby and patient registration; cafeteria and food services; business office; gift shop; administrative offices; and physical therapy and speech therapy. When making its risk determination related to external flooding, the risk management team decided that the risk of flood damage to the first floor of the facility is extremely likely. Due to the location of much of the equipment, supplies, and patient information (measures have been taken to elevate as many items as possible), the risk management team decided that the severity of flood damage to the first floor would be moderate.

Oglebay Hospital is at the risk determination step. How many steps of a risk analysis has it already completed?
Two factors are considered for each threat using the qualitative approach. What are the two factors?
For each threat that is identified, the two factors that you identified in Question 2 are rated. What are the levels of ratings called, and what value would you assign to each rating based on the information given?
Combining the two scores that you have assigned under the qualitative approach, assign a value to the flooding risk at Oglebay Hospital.
What do you believe are the positive and negative aspects of the qualitative approach to risk determination? Why?
