TASK: HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATION ANALYSIS
SCENARIO
Nursing has a pivotal role in shaping policies and implementing practices to improve patient outcomes. Increasingly, healthcare is being reimbursed based on outcomes, including patient satisfaction and quality of care. Healthcare professionals are being held accountable for the care provided and the patient outcomes achieved. In this changing environment, nurses should have an awareness of financial implications, share in the decision-making process, and leverage data through participation in continuous improvement processes.
For this task, you will examine the payment model of a healthcare organization and compare it with the principles of value-based care.
You will consider the organizational ethics that are reflected in the financial structure of the organization and discuss data that informs this financial structure. You will compare this organization to another organization and consider which organization is most aligned with value-based care principles. You will discuss the role of nursing in the fiscal responsibility of the value-based care model.
Your goal for this task is to clearly and concisely present a recommendation that analyzes the alignment of the financial structure within a healthcare organization to value-based healthcare, and analyzes the role of nursing in value-based healthcare, using convincing evidence to promote the necessity for change.
