University of Phoenix College of Health Sciences and Nursing HCS 530 – Health Care Organizations Weeks Three to Five
Impact of Uninsured Population Project Guidelines
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate your understanding of the impact of a growing uninsured and underinsured population on a specific health care organization. This will require that you research community data bases which support the demographics and the primary, secondary, and tertiary health implications for the community which is served by this organization. This information will serve as a foundation for evaluating the risk to the organization both now and in the immediate future from several dimensions: staffing and human resource development, organization of care, technology support, financial solvency, and strategic planning. You will then propose proactive solutions for the organization.
Part I (Week Three)

1. Summarize the mission, structure, and current community position of the organization 2. Define key historical impacts upon the development of the health organization over the last five to ten years. 3. Analyze the population demographics of the service area, detailing the needs and health practices of the uninsured and underinsured. 4. Propose trends in utilization patterns for the organization based upon the above information. 5. Discuss the financial impact of the uninsured and underinsured on this organization over the last three to five years.
Part II (Week Four)

Detail the potential impact that your proposed trends will have upon the following: • Staffing levels, particularly skilled nursing and other health professionals. • Human resource management and development. • Technology advancements • Organizational restructuring • Financial solvency • Development of community health support services • Communication with key stakeholders in the community, government
Part III (Week Five)

Evaluate the overall risk to the organization if the rates of uninsured and underinsured continue to rise at 2-3% over the next five years. Explain in detail how this risk is being measured. Propose to the governing body of the organization five key initiatives for building the organizational strength to meet these risks. The initiatives should detail the issue, the degree of risk, the internal and external environmental strengths and weaknesses, and your assessment of the ability of the organization to effectively respond to these risks. Factors that should be considered include the capacity of the organization to respond to change, the willingness of the leadership/ management to commit to organizational enhancement, and the barriers to organizational effectiveness.
Part IV: Presentation (Week Five)

Prepare 12-15 Microsoft PowerPoint slides which summarize Parts I, II, and III. Be prepared to present these slides in Week Six. Online and Directed Study students should prepare speaker notes along with their slides for their presentation.
