Overview
The purpose of this assignment is so that you will be able to summarize the process of healthcare delivery as it affects access.
Imagine you are/have a patient who needs healthcare. In this assignment, you will discuss your imaginary patient’s access to healthcare. You will decide what is wrong, what needs to be done, how it will be done, and approximate how much it might cost, both with and without a secondary payor (insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid). Include barriers, opportunities, as well as supportive, or obstructive, policies. Be realistic in your descriptions. How does the healthcare access process impact the imaginary patient’s ultimate outcome?
