HCA450 Quality in Health Care
Week 7 Discussion
DQ1 Discuss the role of government in funding and regulation as it relates to ensuring delivery of quality health care: How successful have its efforts been? What effect have government efforts had on the private health care industry (e.g., care facilities, insurance companies, and drug companies)?
DQ2 The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is often referred to as an example of a government-run health care system. How do you perceive the VA as a health care organization? What factors allow the VA system to effectively compete when so many for-profit and nonprofit health care organizations exist as an option?
