TASK 1
SUBDOMAIN 705.3 – HEALTHCARE OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT

Competency 705.3.3: Facilities Management – The graduate effectively manages construction projects and other facilities management projects for a healthcare organization.
Competency 705.3.7: Negotiation – The graduate designs, administers, evaluates, and negotiates contracts to minimize the risk and liability for the organization.

Introduction:

A hospital is a complex system of interrelated functions requiring constant movement of people and goods. Functional design of a hospital can promote skill, economy, convenience, and comfort. Nonfunctional design of a hospital can impede activities of all types, detract from quality of care, and raise costs to intolerable levels.

Healthcare facilities management examines challenging key elements, such as contracting out patient care and quality management systems. Property development puts the focus on patient care.

In this task, you will determine whether to build, buy, or lease space for a new orthopedic service line as discussed in the “Service Line Development Case Study.”



Task:

A. Develop a business summary in which you do the following:
1. Discuss the advantages of each of the following options:
a. Building space for the new orthopedic service line
b. Buying space for the new orthopedic service line
c. Leasing space for the new orthopedic service line
2. Discuss the disadvantages (e.g., liabilities and risks) of each of the following options:
a. Building space for the new orthopedic service line
b. Buying space for the new orthopedic service line
c. Leasing space for the new orthopedic service line
3. Recommend what you consider to be the best option for the facility.

B. When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.

Note: When bulleted points are present in the task prompt, the level of detail or support called for in the rubric refers to those bulleted points.

Note: For definitions of terms commonly used in the rubric, see the Rubric Terms web link included in the Evaluation Procedures section.

AMT Task 2

SUBDOMAIN 705.1 – HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH

Competency 705.1.1: Needs Assessment – The graduate designs, administers, and evaluates a community health needs assessment.

Introduction:

A community health assessment is a developmental process that is added to and amended over time. It is not an end in itself, but a way of using information to plan healthcare and public health programs. In the “Service Line Development Case Study,” there is a community health needs assessment that describes the state of local individuals’ health. This assessment allows the major risk factors, the causes of ill health, and the actions required to address these health risks to be identified.



Task:

A. Analyze the community health needs assessment in the case study by doing the following:
1. Discuss major risk factors identified in the assessment.
2. Discuss whether the healthcare facility in the case study is addressing the needs identified in the assessment.

B. Develop a health planning summary outlining recommendations of how to resolve any outstanding community health needs.

C. When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.

Note: When bulleted points are present in the task prompt, the level of detail or support called for in the rubric refers to those bulleted points.

TASK 3

AMT Task 3

SUBDOMAIN 705.4 – HEALTHCARE VALUES, POLICY, & LAW

Competency 705.4.1: Health Policy – The graduate effectively interprets health policy initiatives.
Competency 705.4.2: Health Legislation – The graduate analyzes strategies that impact health legislation.

Introduction:

Healthcare does not operate in a vacuum. Trends that emerge in the national market are influenced by legislation, delivery of care, changes in payment methods, and social and economic conditions. Healthcare professionals monitor policy at the national level by reviewing legislative initiatives and analyzing rules and regulations. Understanding healthcare policy helps in facilitating grant reviews and in developing new program initiatives. Legislation may cause changes in the way hospitals and healthcare providers deliver patient care. It is beneficial for hospitals to incorporate the national trends, policy, and legislation in determining the appropriate path for selecting service lines. You will use the “Service Line Development Case Study” to complete this task. Imagine that you have received a memo asking you to identify national trends, policy, and legislation and to summarize the impact it will have on the new service line. The proposed service lines are the following:
• Orthopedic center
• Cardiovascular center
• Cancer center

Task:

A. Identify current national healthcare trends and policy initiatives that may affect the healthcare organization evident in the attached “Service Line Development Case Study.”

1. Discuss how the identified trends impact the delivery of healthcare in the case study.

2. Discuss possible legislation that may result from these trends.

B. When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.

Note: When bulleted points are present in the task prompt, the level of detail or support called for in the rubric refers to those bulleted points.
