2.
Each student should look for healthcare-associated organizations such as hospitals, labs, and even health insurance companies.
NOTE: Try not to select an organization that has so much information that it becomes overwhelming to navigamte and complete assignents. I’ve seen this happen many times.
The main criteria of selection is the company should have a 10-K form, which is the audited annual report. Note: Keep in mind this is not the only way to search for a company using the SEC website!
Proposal Scenario
To get started, review and become familiar with the scenario that’s the focus of this course long project.
IMPORTANT: Notice the assignment indicates the instructor plays the role of the CEO budgetary board. In this context, your proposals will require substance, details, and solid justification. Examine selections carefully to ensure decisions are not based solely on a personal desires or ambitions For example: “Submitting a proposal for a women’s health clinic to a company whose strategies, missions, and goals are directed towards outpatient mental health services. Get the point?”
While healthcare organizations differ greatly, managers in various departments in organizations must propose changes to processes, the purchase of new equipment, the addition of employees, and many other changes to executives and boards to obtain approval. For this course, students will place themselves in the role of a manager in an organization of their choice. Students are tasked with creating a written proposal that will add value to an organization and will impact the budget. This may come in the form of adding updated equipment, changing a process to become more streamlined, and so on. Students will be submitting their proposals to the instructor, who will be playing the roles of CEO and budgetary board, for consideration. This assessment will require students to defend their proposals in terms of the value added and the financial impacts to the organization, as they would need to in the real world.
