Importance of Social, Biological, and Genetic Determinants

I do not think that social determinants are necessarily more important than the biological and genetic determinants of health for health educators to understand.  The biological makeup of a person is important, a person may have been born with ‘HIV, sickle-cell anemia, hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene (risk of breast and ovarian cancer),’ (Healthy People 2020, 2020).  Knowing these underlying conditions about a person will significantly affect their future.  Genetic conditions that they are born with could greatly influence what conditions they must be raised in, the level of care they will require, what support they will need, and much more.  Although understanding genetic determinants is important, understanding social determinants are equally important to a person’s welfare.  Social determinants help us understand hose affected by them because they allow us to grasp a clearer understanding of why someone behaves a certain way if it is outside the scope of a social norm.  A person who does not have access to adequate education, health care, community support, or is exposed to criminal activity and violence may be steered down a path of self-destruction because the environment they grew up in does not support healthy behavior (Healthy People 2020, 2020). 

Influence of Health Education

There are many opportunities for health educators to influence education to improve the living situations of the people that are most affected by social determinants.  Establishing community programs is critical in regards to those exposed to violent situations because it presents an opportunity to socialize with people that one, wants to help them succeed and two, socialize with peers that also have the desire for a better future.  A mentorship program will allow for one-on-one interactions with affected people to encourage them to continue on the right path to a bright future.  Outreach programs to at-risk youth and teens will initiate the connection between those at-risk and those that want to ensure those teens will make for positively influential citizens.  Teaching youth about job opportunities and how to function in the workforce is another way to create an environment that encourages them to be productive members of society.  Health education needs to encourage different avenues to deter negative social determinants to create environments where all people can be successful. 

Conclusion

Social, biological, and genetic determinants are equally important for health educators to understand because each component holds value in determining the future of a child.  Biological and genetic determinants are important for the medical aspect of their future whereas social determinants can influence how a person may act.  Health education should get more involved in creating programs that help at-risk youth and ensuring that they have all opportunities to be successful in their future.

 Medicare or Medicaid – which has greater impact in Florida? 

Above is the answer of 2 peer.  I need a response for them

PEER 1

Medicare and Medicaid are the greatest insurance programs run by the government. However, they are operated and funded by different parts of the government and primarily serve different groups. Medicare is run by the federal government and mainly provide health coverage to individual aged 65 years and above and those with disability. Medicaid entails collaboration between the state and federal government and provides health coverage to low-income. However, there are those how meet dual eligible criteria. Therefore, as a state and federal-run program Medicaid has greater effects on state governments. State governments co-fund the program and are expected to match federal funding.

From modest beginnings in 1965, Medicaid has grown significantly from $5.3 billion four decades ago, to $449 billion in 2013. In Florida, Medicaid expenditures have grown by 33% between 2012 and 2016. In 2016, the combined state and federal spending on Medicaid increased by 22%. Over these years, the federal government has provided between 55% and 60% of Medicaid funding. During the same time, Medicaid has growth to more than 75% of the Medicare expenditure and its share of national health expenditure has almost doubled. Following the passage of the Affordable Care Act, 2010, states were requested to expand their Medicaid program (Sutter, 2016). According to Ward (2020), the expansion of the Medicaid program has met significant resistant because of its presumed impact on state budgets. Florida is one of the states that have failed to expand its Medicaid plan under the Affordable Care Act. Some stakeholders argue that expanding the illegibility criteria is likely to have significant fiscal implications. Florida is among the states with the highest personal healthcare spending, ranking 5th nationwide. According to Buettgens (2018), the growing Medicaid expenditure are not necessarily driven by increased coverage, but also by changing medical needs, changes in demographics, and other factors affecting consumption of health care services. The debate on the cost implications of expanding Medicaid are likely to persist, but is evident that more Americans have health insurance. 

PEER2 

 

More often individuals tend not to understand the difference between Medicare in addition to Medicaid. Regardless of them providing assistance to the senior citizens as well as the disabled ones in catering for most of the expenses that are health-related. Medicare is basically a type of health insurance for the people who are disabled, senior or anyone who is known to be suffering from a failure of the kidney which is considered to be permanent. Additionally, it is financed via the contributions of tax security which is contrary to the Medicaid (Hu and Mortensen, 2018).

Florida Medicaid is basically a program that depends on the necessities with benefits which is determined by an individual’s financial in addition to their medical position. It basically provides medical insurance to individuals who are considered to have low incomes in addition to the ones who are disabled. It is a nationwide program which is funded jointly by the federal government in addition to the states. The eligibility of Medicaid, administration in addition to benefits tends to be under the states’ management which are within the guidelines of the federal.

Medicaid basically is known for having an impact which is great within the Florida state in comparison to the Medicare program. It does not provide healthcare which is direct, contrary to that, it pays the nursing homes, hospitals, health plans, physicians in addition to other various caregivers particularly for the services that are covered as well as the ones that have been delivered to the eligible patients. In Florida State it is compulsory for an individual to have a Medicaid so that they can benefit from the healthcare (Munnich and Richards, 2020).

Effective Communication with Diverse Audiences

Select and watch a movie that depicts difficult or different methods of communication between individuals with a disability or with other special needs.  An example of this would be the 2003 movie Radio with Cuba Gooding Jr. There are many ways to view this movie on Netflix, HBO, Amazon, etc.

First, provide a short summary of the movie, and include the background on the main characters. As discussed in the previous module, utilize person-first language to describe individuals from specialized populations (example: “child with autism,” rather than “autistic child”). 

Discuss the communication difficulties or barriers between the individuals in the movie. What misunderstandings or obstacles did you observe that prevented clear communication between the characters?

Lastly, apply this information directly to healthcare. Why does communication often breakdown between healthcare providers, and patients with special needs? What circumstances from the movie could also be applied to healthcare provider and patients? 

Assignment 09: Cloudy with a Chance of Data

HA3220D – Health Information Systems

Assignment 09: Cloudy with a Chance of Data

 Task: Submit to complete this assignment

One way of addressing Big Data and its challenges is to store data in “the cloud.” Using “the cloud” means storing and accessing data over the internet instead of on a local computer. Most people assume that this method reduces costs, increases accessibility, and provide better protection for information sharing. However, healthcare professionals have conflicting perspectives on how this type of storage can be used in healthcare.

Imagine that you are a healthcare manager for a hospital that is considering the use of cloud-based storage for patient data. You are responsible for making a recommendation for cloud-based storage. Evaluate the case studies and articles that explore the use of Big Data and Cloud-based storage:

“Big Data Ethics” (Richards & King, Wake Forest Law Review)

“Ethical Issues in the Big Data Industry” (Kirsten E. Martin, MIS Quarterly Executive)

“The Cloud Evolution” (Stephen Katona, PM Network)

“To Cloud or Not to Cloud” (Kumar Malavalli, SiliconIndia)

Then, in a 2-page summary:

.Discuss the concept of big data and managing information from health information systems.

.Discuss potential advantages and disadvantages of using cloud-based storage for big data.

.Describe the security and ethical standards of using internet-based storage and retrieval systems.

.Make a recommendation that your hospital use or not use cloud-based storage; explain your reasoning with supportive references. 

 Rating Scale10-9Work meets or exceeds criterion at a high level of competence.8Work reflects an understanding of criterion with minor misunderstandings/misconceptions.7Criterion partially met, but one or more important concepts/skills are missing or flawed.6Work reflects an attempt to meet criterion, but significant misunderstandings/misconceptions are apparent.5-0Criterion not met or work is absent.
