Arguments for and against the commercialization of organ transplants
$15.00Assignment 1: Commercialization of Organ Transplants
Imagine that you are a member of an ethics committee listening to arguments for and against altering the way in which human organs are obtained for patients in need of transplants. A new policy to allow the sale of organs by consenting individuals to patients in need and to medical institutions has been proposed. Critics argue that permitting organs to be bought and sold is unethical. You have been asked to review the arguments for and against the commercialization of organ transplants and to construct a report with your suggested plan of action. Use the Internet or Strayer databases to search for arguments for and against the commercialization of organ transplants, and then apply the principles learned in Weeks 1-3 to formulate your report.
Write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:- Briefly summarize the arguments for and against the commercialization of transplants that you found in your research.
- Formulate your position on the debate of whether or not the sale of organs should be permitted.
- Defend your moral judgment with a moral argument. Identify the moral principle that you are appealing to in your moral argument.
- Determine which normative theory best supports your conclusion.
- Use at least two (2) quality references. (Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.)

Work Orientation: Plan to help us get our business in order
$15.00I am so glad to have you in the clinic! Thanks for the work you have done the past 3 weeks! Now, it is your turn to take the reins! Finally a chance to put into place all of those wonderful things you learned in college!
Much to your surprise, your first morning on your own and you walk into the following situation:
- 2 nurses failed to show up for work without calling
- Patients have been waiting in excess of one hour and are rather vocal about their dissatisfaction
- Patient files are not properly stored; stacks are strewn throughout the office with identifying patient information exposed
- Your front desk assistant is texting while checking-in patients and allowing the office phones to go unanswered
- A patient approaches you about your practice’s “Patient Rights” policies, information, to which you discover, has never been created.
- Reports are left on your desk by the previous manager, marked “URGENT.” You picked them up and notice that they are the financial reports for the past 3 quarters
What do you do? What ethical issues are present? What are the top priorities in your assessment?
As you try to get you bearings straight, I need you to develop plan to help us get our business in order. Your plan will be a 3 page memo using Microsoft Word; (1.5 line spacing and Times New Roman 12. Make sure you understand memo format) to me identifying the issues and potential steps to begin to fix our service issues. Remember to include a prioritization listing (as Page 3 of this document) for the issues I have identified. (HINT: Some of these issues may require immediate action). What I am looking for here is a priority listing of these issues with a time line associated with each of them. For example, are some of these ongoing? Are some of these issues manageable in a week? There is no need to restate the issue in your memo

Patient Satisfaction
$17.50Requirements:
In the best interest of patient centered care, the Board of Trustees has noticed a decline in our patient satisfaction results. I need you to tell me what you think the top patient satisfaction issues in our clinic might be. List at least 10, and you need to also help me assess whether or not these issues are systemic, or due to the fact that some patients just like to complain. Focus on the systemic issues and present a discussion of how we can improve the patient satisfaction. I expect a 2 page paper in Microsoft Word detailing your thoughts on patient satisfaction. The third page of this paper will be a 10 question patient satisfaction survey. We need to know the patient’s thoughts. These need to be measurable—I need you to tell me why.
Additionally, you need to identify what percentage of the patients would receive the survey. You may need to reflect back to how many patients we see based on your research for the “Know your Staff” exercise. What is the duration of the survey, how will it be administered and what percentage would need to respond in order for this to be a significant survey. This should not be a guess.

Clarify the difference between an EMR and an EHR
$10.00Electronic Record
If you remember from week one, we have issues with our records system. As promised, I attended a seminar on integrating Electronic Records into an existing practice. What I was hoping for was some clarification regarding electronic records, but now I am concerned about all of the information I was given and about where the facility is in the grand scheme of things as we only use paper records. What I need from you is a two page informational paper discussing the following:
- Clarify the difference between an EMR and an EHR.
- Is our facility (a Primary Care Facility) required to obtain and operate a functional EHR by a certain deadline? If so, what is the deadline?
- What is “meaningful use” and why is it important to us?
- They kept talking about interoperability. Why is that word important to us?
- What would be our first step as a practice if and when we need to move toward an EHR?
- Are we at risk for being penalized if we do not establish and Electronic Records System?

The controversial issue of Physician-Assisted Suicide
$27.50Physician-Assisted Suicide
To satisfy this assignment, you may make a causal argument, an evaluation argument, a proposal argument, or a combination of arguments, as long as you enter a “conversation” about an issue in dispute, integrating your thoughts with those of experts you encounter via library research. You are to advance your point of view in light of scholarly thinking on the matter. You will need to identify a fruitful, issue-based question and to use your analysis of at least six scholarly sources to develop your argument. In order to responsibly enter this larger conversation about the issue you have chosen, you will need to represent the ideas of others clearly and fairly in advancing your own position, as well as analyze the strengths and weaknesses of different ideas (including your own). Here are two key questions: What do you bring to the table? and What will your argument teach those interested in the issue? As you can see, this is not simply a review of what others have said. I ask for a researched argument rather than a research paper.
As you approach this assignment, look at problems existing in your local community (issues related to schooling or immigration perhaps) or the college community (the marginalization of gays and lesbians, for instance). Limit your focus to what you can adequately handle in 6 pages. Above all, write about something that matters.
Here are your instructions for the researched argument:
- identify a controversial issue
- create and sustain an argument that combines your thinking with that of scholars
- include both analysis and exposition of information
- establish what is at stake in accepting the views of authors (including yourself)
- provide good reasons and relevant evidence to support your point of view
- identify, analyze, and address potential counterarguments
- Paper must be written in 3rd person only
- Paper must conform to APA or MLA standards.

What is the percentage of calls being answered by a physician in the US
$5.00DIAL A PHYSICIAN (Q12 & Q14)
A company has started a phone service that uses overseas doctors to provide emergency medical consultations. The responding doctors are based in a country with low wages but with a highly skilled pool of physicians. Responding to each call takes on average 15 minutes. At any given moment in time, there are 4 doctors overseas on duty. Calls arrive every 5 minutes on average and standard deviation of the inter-arrival time is 5 minutes. The company receives $50 from the patient�s insurance company for each consultation. If one of the 4 overseas doctors is available, the firm pays $20 to the doctor and makes $30 in profit. If no doctor is available overseas, the call is rerouted to the U.S. where a local physician answers the question. A local physician is always available to take a call. In this case, the firm pays the $50 to the local physician, so there�s no profit for the company.
- Q12. What is the percentage of calls being answered by a physician in the US? (Write the percentage, that is, if your answer is 53.22%, input 53.22 as the answer.)
- Q13. How much (in $) does the company pay the physicians in the US over a 4 hour period?
- Q14. What would be the additional profit (in $) per hour if the company managed to have 10 doctors overseas on duty at any given time?
