The advances made over the last twenty years have impacted the way patients are treated and the way healthcare is delivered throughout the VA system. Because of rising cost, and the complexity of the patients the evolution in technology has been crucial to the development of other avenue to treat patients, provide disease management, and provide better access to care. These advancements have also led to more efficient and cost effective care to the Veteran population. In the future the technology will evolve and hopefully will continue on the path that was set by the Veterans Administration by continuing to improve on the delivery of care system, and using research to develop evidence based practices that will continue to provide patient centered care to the Veteran…
This article shows the need for the federal government to intervene in the way the health care system is running. It also shows exactly how the government should intervene and the positive outcomes that would result from that intervention. They state that because they are the largest single payer and the largest single provider of care from the Veteran Health Administration, the Department of Defense, and Indian Health Service. They state that the federal government is the only entity that has the ability to get the attention of all the interested investing parties in order to improve care and raise the bar on the expectation of health care. Also the article states that the role of the federal government has been limited so far. The efforts made to improve quality of health care and dispersment of care equally has been given very little funding. If the government were able to divvy out the proper funding toward health care and increase their role they could do a number of things to improve the quality of care given. These actions include but are not limited to sponsoring the use of uniform measurements of health care quality, implement information systems that are available to the private sector, and provide incentives and rewards for excellent performance in providing care.…
It is true that veterans are the heroes of this country yet receive the least attention to their health. There should be a change in the government; before anyone is deployed out of the country to fight a war, he or she should be given a free house for them self or family. This is just from my observation. However, veterans always return home from deployment with some form of injury it could be physical, mental or emotional that is why nurse need to advocate for them. Health care is the next phase in a veteran’s life after they come back from war. It is important for the veterans to be treated as soon as possible for a better out com. As explained in Shiner (2012) Veterans needed to assess and treated immediately they return from a war…
Generalizations that can be made from all components of the QRI-5 thus far are that Luke know many words and decode the words if taken the time. Luke reads at such a fast pace that causes him to skip over words or changes words. Meaning Luke reads to quickly and assumes what words are based on how they look. For example, Luke read the word garden for the word garbage. I believe the speed of her reading rate contributes to the number of miscuous he has. He may even know the word but he reads it so fast he doesn't notice that he read the word incorrectly. I also noticed a pattern while Luke is reading. If he doesn't know the word he would read over it really fast or say it very quickly so that I would know what he said. Other times he would…

military receiving medical and financial care? The VA was established to help give programs, financial and medical help to our military after being discharged. The Veterans Health Administration is America's largest health care system with more than 1,700 sites of care and is constantly ranked among the nation’s top health care provider (Office). Almost 5.5 million people received care in VA healthcare facilities in 2008. The VA is tasked with serving not only the veterans but the veterans families as well. One point that the opposing side has is that veterans, after being discharged, are not retrieving the healthcare they deserve. A five thousand page plus report found that forty-four percent of troops returning from Iraq and Afghanistan report difficulties for receiving healthcare (McVeigh). Well the VA has completed over 4.1 million claims since 2009 and provided over $158 million in disability to 4.3 million veterans, survivors alone in 2012 alone about $150 million in spending cost to veterans. “On October 22, 2009 President Barrack Obama signed a law the veterans’ Health care Budget Reform and Transparency Act, which authorizes the U.S. congress to approve the VA health care budget a year in advanced (Office). For decades the VA has been providing millions of dollars to veterans in medical and financial costs. VA also provides many healthcare and life insurance policies to veterans. From Service Members Group life insurance to Veterans Mortgage Life…
Vyaderm Pharmaceuticals is a pharmaceutical company that was founded in 1945 from the result of the postwar healthcare system. The company both developed their brand name and earned a majority of their initial revenues from the manufacturing of drugs such as penicillin. Their former CEO, Thomas E. Finn, led Vyaderm to financial success with a business strategy focused solely on earnings per share. The main issue with the earnings per share approach in this case is that there was very little interest in helping build synergies across the company’s fifteen subsidiaries to support corporate strategy. In 1997, Vyaderm’s new CEO attempted to solve this issue by moving away from the old earnings per share business strategy in order to implement an Economic Value Added Approach (EVA Approach). The reason for this shift from one business model to another was to provide a solution to conflicting management priorities caused by competing financial measures.…
The Department of Veterans Affairs is continuing to have many problems with many of the services that they offer. The service that has been impacted the most is the healthcare division, others such as vocational rehabilitation and the Post 9/11 GI Bill are not providing the proper outlets and support that the veterans are in need of. In recent months the VA has had many accountability problems with regard to patients even dying from lack of services.…
I would want to work on this project because it would be a good opportunity to develop my systems analysis and design skills. A student working on this team would be able to experience the initiating, planning, executing, and closing down of a project. It appears that the team will have considerable choice in how to conduct the project. The project has low risk and deals with a hot area for information systems. On the other hand, this project will likely not lead to a permanent job after graduation and the client is rather inexperienced.…
A case study is an empirical enquiry that investigates a contemporary phenomenon in depth and within its real-life context, especially when the boundaries between phenomenon and context are not clearly evident. The case study inquiry copes with the technically distinctive situation in which there will be many more variables of interest than data points, and as one result relies on multiple sources of evidence, with data needing to converge in a triangulating fashion, and as another result benefits from the prior development of theoretical propositions to guide data collection and analysis.…
