The purpose of this assignment is to allow students to create their “ideal health system” with respect to cost, access, and quality. Students will analyze problems and solutions, issues and trends of their ideal health system. Students will work individually on this assignment.

The ‘Ideal Health System’ can mirror one in existence somewhere today (ie: a county) or it can be completely fabricated based on fact finding and research (ie: Crystal’s Creative Care). Please note: the information you write about will have been found somewhere – therefore that resource needs to be properly cited.
