Arguably, health reform (Affordable Health Care Act) was the greatest achievement of Barack Obama’s administration. Discuss two arguments for or against the goals of the Affordable Health Care Act. Provide evidence to support your position. 

ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION AND THEN REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTION AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 150 WORDS or MORE)

                                          CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE

The first argument that I have with Obamacare is that the “underlying behavioral issues contributing to healthcare expenses (e.g. obesity, diet, lack of exercise) besides tobacco smoking are not addressed by the ACA, and positive behaviors are not incentivized with subsidies” (www.healthpocket.com/). Obesity and childhood obesity are quickly becoming epidemic in the United States and Obamacare did nothing to address the issue.

The second argument against Obamacare is the fact that, “Individuals who do not enroll in health insurance will have to pay a penalty thru 2018″(www.healthpocket.com/). Yes, I know it is important for everyone to have health insurance, but it should be up to the individual and their family to decide. There could be underlying circumstance way they don’t have insurance. For example, they just may not be able to afford it or their job did not offer it.

HA3110D – Quality Improvement and Risk Management

 LP06.1 Assignment: 5 Whys and 5 Hows

 In your self-improvement project you have been provided with the Likert survey as a quantitative tool for measuring performance by collecting and displaying data and monitoring your performance.

A qualitative tool, one used for generating ideas, setting priorities and determining causes, is the “5 Whys” to determine the root cause of a problem. The American Society for Quality” takes this tool a bit further by applying “5 Hows” to find a solution to the problem. To find out more, go to “5 Whys and 5 Hows” (ASQ).

Directions

1.In a Word document, write down the AIM statement for your self-improvement project (topic, how much by when).

2.Drill down to the details of the problem by successively asking five times what and why. Start with: “why is this a problem” and ask four more whys. Identify each contributing factor to the problem along with the final root cause.

3.Upon determination of the root cause(s), use the 5 Hows method to develop actions to solve the problem. Keep asking how until you find a root solution that resolves the root cause.

4.What insight did you gain from this exercise? Was the root cause what you expected? Why or why not? Where there more problems identified?

5.In what way do the recommended actions (the hows) relate to the changes you have implemented? Exactly how?

(Total Length: 250-350 words).

As Hite and Seitz (2016) show in Chapter 3: Food, there is enough food produced and available to feed the entire world every day. However, for various reasons, millions still go hungry, making food security—having consistent access to adequate nutritional food—a persistent global social problem in both developing and developed countries.   

Where do most of the world’s hungry live?

What are two causes of hunger and two problems that result?

What are some potential consequences and benefits to using biotechnologies in developing countries? Based on the research currently available, should developing countries pursue the use of biotechnologies? Why or why not? 

Within the slide deck, you will find three quiz questions. There are again only THREE in the deck, and are 5 points each.
