Ohio State University Health & Medical Childhood Obesity Presentation

Hello I’m looking for help on a presentation on the topic of childhood obesity.

Overview

The final project for this course is the creation of a health issue presentation.

Healthcare managers must recognize that changes in healthcare policy can alter the economic landscape of an organization. In understanding healthcare economic principles, healthcare mangers can develop healthcare delivery models designed to address critical healthcare issues. Ultimately, the goal must always be improving population health and outcomes. This assessment will provide you with a real-world opportunity to assume the role of healthcare administrator and analyze key legislation for its impacts to the delivery of care and public health.

In this assessment, you will select an economic issue that has impacted the healthcare system from the provided list and identify a corresponding health policy addressing the issue. Your task will be to examine relevant macroeconomic and microeconomic forces to arrive at an informed opinion on the benefits and consequences of that policy. Based on your investigation, you will create a presentation articulating the value of the policy initiative for the overall health of American society. Ultimately, your aim is to influence an audience of healthcare administrators and managers, as well as healthcare policy makers and legislators, to care about your key health topic and support your identified solution.

The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Three, and Five. The final submission is due in Module Seven.

In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes: 

Analyze fundamental economic principles and indicators for determining operational strategies that improve healthcare quality, costs, and accessibility for patients and caregivers 

Evaluate contemporary economic policies and practices for their positive and negative impacts to the American healthcare system and the healthcare consumer 

Assess the market power of healthcare organizations for their potential to influence healthcare consumer behavior 

Illustrate socioeconomic factors that influence community health needs by identifying specific catalysts for and obstacles to change in the American healthcare system

• Prompt
• Your presentation should be a polished artifact using slides and speaker notes that are supportive of a five- to ten-minute talk. In the talk, you should passionately address an audience of healthcare administrators and managers, as well as healthcare policy makers and legislators. The content should address each of the critical elements listed below.
• Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
• Analysis of the Health Issue: Describe for your audience the nature of your chosen public health issue, so that they will be able to understand and appreciate your presentation. Specifically, be sure that you address the following: 

Outline the underlying economic principles and indicators at play, using specific examples. To what extent do those principles and indicators apply in understanding your chosen public health issue? 

Demonstrate the economic impacts of your public health issue. Provide specific examples of each impact. 

Analyze the larger context within which your chosen public health issue exists. To what extent is the issue a product of larger socioeconomic factors? 

Examine the major healthcare organizations impacted by the public health issue. How are they currently acting and reacting to the issue?
