John Q the Movie the Questionnaire
$5.00John Q the movie questionnaires
http://putlocker.bz/watch-john-q-online-free-putlocker.html
• Read an article about <=”” cite=””>in defense of managed care in the May 2002 issue of Managed Care that is available at managedcaremag.com:http://www.managedcaremag.com/archives/0205/0205.johnq.html.- If your son had severe, life-threatening cardiomyopathy, as in this story, and your options were to a) let him die while having some “quality time” or b) get him a heart transplant, which would you choose?
- Does your (or your parents) insurance cover a heart transplant? You will need to look at the plans’ benefits and rules. You may need to consult with a health plan representative. Write down the name of your insurance, what kind of insurance it is (HMO, PPO, POS, etc.), whether it specifically covers heart transplants, how high the maximum single payout is, and how high your lifetime benefits are. Write down how you found out these things. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE, research an insurance program for a friend/family member, or find one on-line to research and report on.
- Give your opinion of the Managed Care article’s points raised in questions 3 and 4 above.
- What is a “cash account?”
- Given what you have learned about member services in this course, comment on the fact that John Q did not know about his policy switch from a PPO to an HMO. Was this John Q’s problem, an employer problem or a health plan problem? What should be done to improve this situation?
- In the ER, the hostages, hospital employees and doctors discuss John Q’s problem. They suggest that HMOs create incentives that might lead to a physician missing a problem when it could have been caught and treated. List four incentives common to HMO provider reimbursement or provider relations that might do this, and explain why each of the incentives you list could do this.
- Policy Opinion Question (no right or wrong answer). Should the working poor, such as John Q, be denied certain treatments available to those with better jobs and better health care or those “on welfare?”

Math Assignment
$10.00Assignment:
Null Hypothesis: There is No difference on the Math Scores of Seniors who took Pre-Algebra class from all seniors, on the Algebra section of the SAT2 Achievement Test.
Given the scores of Five (4) seniors who took Pre-algebra Class, the mean, and standard deviation, provide the following:
Create a Table displaying the scores of the five students:
Senior #2 = X=130
Senior #3 = X=140
Senior #4 = X =110
Senior #5= X=160
The Mean is 135 and Standard deviation is 15
(Use your Graph pad to calculate our data)
1 Calculate z score for each senior
2 Calculate the p value for z score
3 Set your alpha p value to (p=.05)
4 Follow the Display of table on Module 3 Reading pages 6-9 (Retaining/Rejecting Null Hypothesis) for the display of data to indicate whether to Reject, or Retain the Null.
Indicate Type I error and Type II Error on your findings.
Provide APA statement based on your findings.
(Follow exactly the way the table is set, for results on ADA students as being displayed)

Answer the following questions (100 points)
$25.00Answer the following questions (100 points):
- Why is the “Mean” a measure of central tendency considered more reliable over mode and median when looking at a set of observations or scores?
- 12, 10, 15, 22, 22, 24, 16, 18, 20, 22, 16,
Take a look at these observations and answer the following questions:
- What is the mode?
- What is the median?
- Generate the Mean?
- Generate the Standard Deviation?
- What is the N?
- Using the same observations above, calculate the z score of each of the eleven (11) scores?
- If a z score of (-2.38) is given or known:
- Where does this z score fall on the normal curve in relations to the mean?
- John got a raw score of 55 on the math test, with the class Mean of 45, and standard deviation of 2.3
- What is John’s z score?
- Where would his z score place on the normal curve?
- Why is z score considered a standard score?
- If the test results of 5th graders on the math test indicate a asymmetric curve skewed to the left. What conclusion can you immediately draw from this presentation?
- If the same test in question #7 above indicates asymmetric curve skewed to the right. What say you about this phenomenon?
- Why is “Range” not highly recommended to be used as a measure of variability when dealing with a large set of observations?
- Define z score?
