Choose already existing health care policy which you would like to see implemented or changed. Imagine that you have been given an opportunity to meet with a legislator to obtain support for your position or to influence his or her own policy decisions.

Read the Writing Policy Position Papers document from The Business Advocacy Fund.

Create a 1,400- to 2,100-word policy position paper to support your position on your chosen health care policy. Be sure to keep the following in mind:

• You are trying to convince them of the validity and necessity of your policy proposal.
• You are showing the legislator your understanding of the policy development and implementation process and you understand the role that he or she plays throughout
• When you are providing your legislator with your information, be aware of the impact that special interest groups and other politics will have on the legislator’s decision. These factors will certainly impact the way that your proposal is received by the legislator.
• Consider the relationship of government to the creation of policy and describe how your legislator’s support will assist the creation of the policy for which you are lobbying.

In your policy position, you must address each of the following bullets. It is vital that you address them in relation to your chosen health care policy. For example, where is your policy at within the health policymaking process? What has been done and what still needs to be done? And what information is needed for the development of your policy? How does this differ from other policies being developed? Keep in mind those are only examples of how you may address the required bullets below in your policy position.

• Analyze the health policymaking process.
  • Consider the following:
    • How the policymaking process will impact the ability of your topic to become a successful policy
    • Which stage of the policy process will be the most difficult for your policy to pass, and why.
• Differentiate information needed for the development of health policy.
  • Consider the following:
    • What data and research indicate a need for the proposed policy.
    • What information you will present to the legislator and why this information will be selected.
• Differentiate key stakeholders and interest groups involved in health policymaking.
  • Consider the following:
    • Who the key stakeholders are and why they are important to your policy proposal.
    • What special interest group would support your policy and why you chose the group.
• Analyze the drivers of health policy formulation.
  • Consider the following:
    • What factors will drive the formulation of the policy and why these policies elevate the issue from a topic to an agenda item.
• Analyze the roles of legislative committees.
  • Consider the following:
    • What legislative committee(s) would be involved in reviewing your policy, their role, and how the structure of those committees might impact the success of your policy in the legislative stage.
• Analyze local, state, and federal roles in the development of health policy.
  • Consider the following:
    • How any prior policy attempts related to your policy, either at local, state, or federal levels, have impacted the development of your selected policy.
• Evaluate the impact of individuals and groups on the development of health policy.
  • Consider the following:
    • How either individual stakeholders or stakeholder interest groups have previously attempted to develop other policies like yours, and the impact of those efforts on the development of your policy.
• Evaluate the impact of advocacy methods on the development of health policy.
  • Consider the following:
    • The impact of prior advocacy methods with regards to your policy and why you feel these efforts have been either successful or unsuccessful.
• Contrast local, state, and federal policy implementation processes.
  • Consider the following:
    • Which level of government–federal, local, or state–would be primarily responsible for implementing your policy, and how the role of that level of government and differs from the roles of the other levels of government.
• Analyze the differing roles of public and private regulatory agencies as they relate to the implementation of health policy.
  • Consider the following:
    • Which public and/or private regulatory agency (or agencies) is responsible for implementing your policy and how that agency’s role would impact the implementation of your policy.
• Analyze the effect of current health policy on the health care environment.
  • Consider the following:
    • How the policy would impact the healthcare environment
    • What resources healthcare organizations would need devote to implementing the policy
    • How the proposed policy will impact the cost of delivering care (both short and long term)
    • How implementing the policy will impact the quality of patient care
    • What important tradeoffs might occur if the policy is implemented

Use appropriate references so your legislator may understand why he or she should support or adopt your position.

You are encouraged to include tables, graphics, and visuals where appropriate.

Research
Project

Make sure the written
report (the essay) of your project is at least 4-pagesin length notincluding the cover
page, reference page, graphs, or any other appendices/schedules.

Below is a list of items that you will need to incorporate
into your mass manufacturing business. You are to
create a manufacturing plant with 2 separate divisions. Each division
will make one type of product (i.e. Textbooks and Pens or Shoes and Purses). You will prepare a professional written
report and include three different budgets. You may also include a graph which will
examine the business just before the opening day.

As the CEO, you need to consider and research most of the
items (especially the bolded ones): 

1.  What is (are) the equipment(s) needed in
order to start the operation (make sure to include prices of the
equipment(s)?

  2.  What
types of products will be sold?

  3.  How many process systems will it take to make
these items?

  4.  What
type of management (centralized or
decentralized)?

  5.  How
much will your products sell for?

  6.  How are you going to set your Selling Price?
(Market/Cost?)

  7.  How
much will each factory worker be paid? (Provide a general annual wages).

  8.  How
many hours per day will you open and how many days per week?

   9.  List
and express in dollars your factory estimated variable, fixed and mixed    costs when
applicable.  

  10. Prepare at least three different budgets and show where the
numbers come from:

  a.  Flexible division budget; b. Zero-based budget;
c.  Sales budget

  d.  Production budget; e.  DM budget; f. 
COGS budget; g.  Cash payment
budget

  11. 
What is included in administration and selling expenses?

  12. 
Calculate the Break Even Point in
Unit and in Dollar.

   13.  Determine the company’s Rate of Return.

  14. 
Prepare a budgeted income
statement or a simple income statement.

  15. 
Provide a Works Cited page for
your three sources.

Key for a higher grade:

Make sure to write your responses to the questions above
as an Essay format; do not
simply list your response(s) to the question(s). Prepare any budgets and graphs
separately and include them as appendices at the end of the written report. I
highly recommend to research an existing mass manufacturing business and mimic
their production/systems.

Some examples may include EnerDel, Kellogg, Nestle, Vera
Bradley, and GM.

This project is not intended
to be completed during one evening,

so make sure to plan
accordingly in order to meet the due date!

See the General Instructions and
the Tips document, in Moodle, for more details.

Using these data, conduct the following analyses:

(a) Plot and inspect the data. Summarize the dynamics with relevant ACF and PACF plots thataccount for the large drop in public drunkness arrests that occurs after June 1971. Discuss yourinitial models based on these diagnostics.

(b) Fit an appropriate ARIMA model to the data from January 1966 to June 1971. Make sure youcheck the diagnostics to make sure there is no residual seasonal serial correlation.

(c) Now include a permanent intervention variable that allows the constant in your model to changestarting in June 1971. Add this variable as a regressor in your ARIMA model and fit it to the fullsample. What do you conclude from this model. Hint: you can make the intervention variable using this intervene

(d) Check and report the residual diagnostics for this model. What modifications need to be madeto the ARIMA specification after including the intervention?

(e) Why is this procedure optimal? That is, why not just fit an ARIMA model to the full samplerather than use the part of the sample prior to the intervention like you did above?

I have a course project due, and need help rewriting it. This project is a “Response to Request for proposal” meaning i have find a proposal that has been submitted on www.fbo.gov within the last 90 days and create a “response” to it.
