Ciutation REQUIRED for the POWERPOINT and DISCUSSION POST —– THIS IS A 2 PART

Ciutation REQUIRED for the POWERPOINT and DISCUSSION POST —– THIS IS A 2 PART assignment and will require TWO uploads: one POWERPOINT with 10-12 slides and a discussion post paragraph.
INSTRUCTIONS for DISCUSSION:
******For this discussion start by reading the assigned chapter. Once you have done so please answer the question below.
You are chair of the health planning council of a town that continues to have a health care cost crisis. The town has 30 physicians, each seeing 30 patients a day at a cost of $30 per visit. This means that the total daily cost of primary care in the community is 30 × 30 × 30 = $27,000.
• What cost controlling methods are viable to reduce the total cost of physician services? Why?
• Would it work to reduce the fee per visit from $30 to $20? Why or why not?
Your initial response must be at least 150 words and include at least one reference that is properly formatted and cited at least 2 times in the body of your post.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWERPOINT
For this assignment you will read the scenario below:
You are the President of the United States, and your first term ends in a year. The cost-control mechanism you instituted 2 years ago, based on patient cost sharing and managed competition, has not worked, and the American people are upset about persistent health care inflation. You are preparing for a major television address on health care costs.
Based on this scenario you will develop a 10-12 PowerPoint that includes the following:
• A definition of patient cost sharing and managed competition. What are these practices and what is the expected outcome?
• An explanation of whether these strategies are considered ‘painful’ or ‘painless’ cost controlling mechanisms
• A proposal on either the expansion of current cost-sharing programs and more regulations to control costs or the elimination of the two current control mechanisms in favor of new ones.
In addition to the above content requirements your presentation must also include:
• A minimum of three outside references must be included on a references slide at the end of the presentation.
• Detailed slide notes that include citations where appropriate.
• A design theme, colors, and images. A minimum of three images must be included.
• A minimum of 5 minutes of narration
