case study on the book of Health Care Delivery in the United States 10th edition by Kovner and Knickman chapter 7, page 147
Case Study
You have just been hired as the director of strategic planning for a health plan that insures 30% of the residents in a metropolitan area of 500.000. Those insured by this health plan are employed mostly by large companies in the metropolitan area, and these companies pay for their employees’ health insurance. The health plan leaders and the employers both recognize that their business model depends on their success in addressing behavioral risk factors that play a critical role in the prevention and management of chronic diseases, the containment of health care costs, and the enhancement of employee productivity.
In your new role, you are asked to create a comprehensive plan for addressing these behavioral risk factors- by improving both the clinical care provided and the plan’s community-based efforts. Specially, you want to develop strategies to reduce the levels of tobacco use, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity.
Case study Discussion
1)- How would you go about preparing this plan? (need to be answered in the case study)
2)-What mix of interventions would you need to consider that might change enrollee behavior, provider behavior, and community policies and environment and maximize the cost-effectiveness of this plan? (need to be answered in the case study)
3)- Write a report to your manager that lays out the assumptions, model(s), and evidenced-based strategies you will follow in developing this plan. (Need to be answered)
I want it to be done in APA style, with a minimum of 4 references. You can find this case study in the book of Health Care Delivery in the Unites States. 10th edition. By Anthony R. Kovner and James R. Knickman. Chapter 7, page 147.
