8500-Discussion – 1

Leadership, Management, and Systems Thinking

What does leadership mean to you? Additionally, how do leadership and leadership responsibilities differ between health care administration leaders and managers? The difference between health care administration leadership and health care management may be highlighted by the way in which each uses a systems approach in solving health issues. Although health care administration leadership and health care management may use a systems approach differently, the use of a systems approach provides leaders and managers with access to more resources for solving health problems. To illustrate this point, think of the role a system plays in preventing a pandemic outbreak and how access to additional resources may assist health care administration leadership effectiveness. As a result, think about how a systems thinking approach might impact your definition of health care administration leadership.

For this Discussion, review the Learning Resources. Consider how you define health care administration leadership and how your definition applies a systems thinking approach. Also, think about the differences between health care administration leadership and health care management. Think of an example to illustrate this difference.

Discussion 03: Conflict of Responsibility

HA3300D – Healthcare Policy and Ethics

Discussion 03: Conflict of Responsibility

Suppose you are the healthcare manager in a hospital oncology (cancer) unit. Every day, you see patients and families suffer a great deal because of cancer. One day, you learn that one of the oncologists is seeing a larger number of patients go into remission. Upon further investigation, you learn that he is using medication and treatment methods not yet approved by the American Medical Association. You find out that other countries are using the treatment effectively, but most in the medical community are skeptical because it is a non-traditional approach to treating cancer.

You and the physician are the only ones who understand the medical and legal implications: that the patient will die if he stops, but the hospital could be sued for malpractice if you continue to offer him this treatment. The doctor accepts the risk and promises not to tell anyone if you do not. He goes on to say he will stop once he is finished treating a current patient who will surely die if he stops treatment.

INITIAL POST

.What would you do in this scenario? Why? What underlying beliefs or codes of ethics guide your behavior?

.Does the ACHE’s Code of Ethics provide adequate guidance in this situation? Why or why not? Refer to specific quotes from the ACHE Code of Ethics that apply here.

.Do you believe that the ACHE Code of Ethics provides adequate guidance overall in such situations? Refer to your notes from Learning Activity 1.

Your initial post should be 8 – 10 sentences in length and include an APA-style references list.

Roles of Unions

Question A

Under what circumstances, if any, would you cross a picket line? Answer if you were an employer of the company, and if you were an outside worker.

Question B

Because of the duty of fair representation, unions have an obligation to represent all workers fairly and thus unions are sometimes put in the awkward role of advocating on behalf of a poor performing worker—but this is their legal obligation. Do you think this is right? How do you think this makes exemplary workers feel? Do you think exceptions should be made if, for example, an employer has only met five of the seven tests of just cause?
