Worth 200 points See Chapters 10-14 of the text to help understand some of the legal issues covered in this assignment.Jim and Laura Buyer visit the local car dealership because they are interested in buying a new car. The car they currently have is aging and is starting to have mechanical problems. Jim and Laura would share the new car, and use it to go back and forth to work and school. Before going to the dealership, Jim and Laura decide that they can only afford $400.00 a month in car payments.Once at the car dealership, Jim and Laura meet Stan Salesman. Stan shows them several vehicles and Jim and Laura test-drive several of the cars. Jim and Laura particularly like the blue 4-door sedan.  Therefore, they agree to give Stan Salesman a $100.00 deposit to hold the car for a day. Stan Salesman does not give them the receipt but guarantees that the $100.00 is refundable. No documents were signed. The next day, Stan Salesman calls Jim and Laura to ask them when they would like to take delivery of the car. Jim and Laura, on the way home from the dealership, decided that they were not going to buy the car because they did not want to spend that money each month. Therefore, Jim and Laura tell Stan salesman that they have decided not to buy the car and request their $100.00 deposit back.Stan insists that the $100.00 was a deposit on the car and was meant to be part of the contract to buy the car. Stan is very persistent and insistent that Jim and Laura have contracted to buy the car; therefore, the $100.00 will be applied to the purchase price of the car. Jim and Laura are shocked and angry as not only do they not want to spend the money, but now feel as though they are being duped by Stan Salesman. Jim and Laura have an appointment to see a lawyer in a few days, but know you are a student taking a business law class and come to you for advice. They are very frazzled, and understandably upset that they may have just purchased a car. Since you have been taking business law, you have read and understand the elements of a contract and the defenses to a contract. Therefore, although you are not a lawyer, you provide some basic advice from what you’ve learned in your business law class.In three to five (3-5) pages, advise Jim and Laura based on the above facts as presented, the material provided in the text, and material covered in the lecture. In your paper, be sure to address the following:

need back in 1 day

The assignment for this week represents the last phase of your Course Project paper. In you prepared and submitted the annotated bibliography containing 10 annotations based upon research into the administration-politics dichotomy in public administration within the context of various topics studied over the term. That paper was submitted, graded, and feedback provided by the facilitator. You should make any suggested revisions or additions to the content of that document. In you prepared an essay that identified different themes that emerged from your analysis of the peer-reviewed journal articles and annotations written for those articles. The assignment for this week brings these two parts together into one cohesive paper that reflects your own analysis of the research from the articles and how that content addresses the administration-politics dichotomy. It will portray how this dichotomy has been perceived over time based upon peer-reviewed research and evidence, and it is not intended to be a venting of personal opinion.As noted in previous instructions, you must provide in-text citations for all of your sources and include them all on a references page using APA style guidelines. Your references page should be the last page of your document and should include all the references you used that are not included in your annotated bibliographic entries. For example, you might want to refer in your essay to Woodrow Wilson’s article in the textbook. You would not add it to your annotated bibliographic entries but would include it in your list of references at the end of your paper. : Any direct quotations or references to specifics from your annotated bibliographic entries in your essay would have an in-text, parenthetical citation but would only be listed in your annotated bibliographic alphabetical list.The Course Project document will be will be somewhere around 16–24 pages, depending on the length of your essay and the length and number of your article summaries (your weekly annotated bibliographic entries).

Research Paper Propsoal / Part 1

Research Paper ProposalA research proposal is an overview of the argument contained in your working thesis statement, sometimes called a hypothesis. It is not based on research, but on what you already know, or think you know, about your topic.If done well, a research proposal will almost serve as a preliminary outline of your paper. It offers your working thesis (hypothesis) and explanation, which should list the points you want to make. The sub-points are the main points of your paper. And the objections represent the of the argument.This is a good time to reconsider the initial thoughts you had earlier in the module about your thesis (or hypothesis): do you need to rewrite it? If you have trouble filling in the sections below, an improperly formed thesis might be the problem.The research proposal has 5 parts:: a one-sentence paragraph; no introduction is necessary.: a statement that includes the points you think you will be discussing in your paper. : each sub-point explains more fully a point mentioned in your explanation.: a brief discussion of the opposition’s point of view.: your brief answer to the opposition.Your research proposal should look like the five parts listed above. The number of sub-points may vary, but if you have only two, you may not have enough material for a good paper. For a simple undergraduate paper, limit your sub-points to 4 or 5.The point of this exercise is to give you a focus, to force you to think about your topic independently of any research you may do or have done. This will probably serve as a basis for your paper, although it is quite likely that, once you begin your research, some of your ideas will change. That is the point of research: working to find an answer to a question!Although your early research may have given you some great information, it is not necessary to rely on research for a good research proposal: you are simply outlining the argument that you expect to make in your final paper.A good research proposal follows the standard format described in this module.Save your research proposal as and submit it to the by . All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources. 

Quality Assurance in Healthcaer Systems

 INTRODUCTIONManagers are found in every organization. They apply principles of management to address basic organizational needs. Systems thinking provides a useful paradigm and structure for managerial activities. Quality initiatives and good customer service enhance the operations and potential for success of any organization. This chapter introduces all three subjects: management, systems thinking, and quality improvement.INTRODUCTIONManagement inside of organizations is undertaken within the larger context of laws and regulations governing commerce in the United States. are rules developed and approved by legislative bodies and enforceable in the courts. are rules developed by governmental agencies or by private organizations that have been assigned authority by the government, usually to enact the provisions of laws. Still more rules are established by discretionary decisions of administrative agencies of the government, because all situations cannot be covered by laws and regulations. For example, the federal government’s Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) makes eligibility and reimbursement decisions for the highly complex Medicare health insurance program; those decisions essentially become rules.Compliance with laws and regulations is a prominent task in larger and complex organizations, and management is responsible for ensuring that employees are aware of and follow relevant laws and regulations. Larger health organizations retain compliance managers and legal counsel to assist in compliance management. For example, management of human resources is subject to a host of laws and regulations. Financial laws and regulations govern financial reporting. In this chapter, the focus is on laws and regulations that are specific to the health sector.The concept of health policy is broader than laws and regulations. refers to the principles and activities guiding the allocation of resources that affect the health of patients and populations. Health policy is heavily influenced by the laws and regulations formulated and implemented by governmental units. In addition to governmental action, private organizations affect health policy in the United States. For example, hospitals must be accredited by The Joint Commission (a private organization) or another similar accrediting body in order to receive federal funds from Medicaid and Medicare. In addition, the decisions made by large private insurance companies regarding reimbursement of specific health services shape health policy. Private nonprofit organizations, as well as private for-profit organizations, are highly involved in formulation of US health policy.Managers can benefit from an understanding of how health policy is formulated. The process of policy formulation is outlined, with an emphasis on governmental action.
