Explain two unintended consequences of the War on Drugs.Many early examples of attempts to eradicate drugs exist such as the Chinese opium laws, the Marijuana Tax Act, and Prohibition. In the last century, certain policies were re-implemented that history had already demonstrated were unable to achieve the desired effect.

It could be argued that the War on Drugs of the 1980s has had the single greatest effect on the American criminal justice system. These policies arguably had a greater impact on the social, political, and economic criminal justice reality in the name of deterrence and rehabilitation. For this Discussion, you examine unintended consequences of the War on Drugs and whether or not society has benefited from this war.

Explain two unintended consequences of the War on Drugs. Explain whether or not you believe society has benefited from the War on Drugs and why. What are the potential international implications of the War on Drugs? Describe the necessary strategies to remedy these issues.

What are some implications of security breaches of its health care data?

What are some implications of security breaches of its health care data?

For ethical, legal, and business reasons, the security of health care data must be a top priority in health care organizations. HIPAA, for example, requires that health care organizations safeguard patient data, and there are serious consequences for breaches of privacy. Yet organizations have many types of sensitive clinical or administrative information they need to protect. To make their systems secure, health care organizations put in place policies as well as technical safeguards such as encryption and passwords. There can be a tradeoff, however, between system security and ease of use by health care providers.

Prepare for this Application Assignment as follows:

Select a type of health care organization, such as an outpatient clinic, nursing home, or hospital, and a specific department or function in this setting, such as a nursing unit, radiology department, or admissions, that would make use of sensitive health data. Bring to mind specific ways in which these data might be improperly accessed, lost, stolen, and so on.
Review this week’s Learning Resources, and conduct online research, as needed, to clarify for yourself the ramifications for individuals and organizations of security breaches in this department, and the solutions that have been devised to protect these data. In what ways might these security measures interfere with the staff’s ease of use of the system? Consider how best to balance these competing interests of data security and convenience for staff.

Is the use of study drugs (without a diagnosis and appropriate prescription) ethical?

Is the use of study drugs (without a diagnosis and appropriate prescription) ethical?There exist a number of prescription drugs called nootropics, which are intended to improve concentration, focus, and general cognitive (brain) function. These have legitimate medical uses as treatments for conditions like narcolepsy.

Identify specific types of data (data sets, standards, examples of those data) that can be redeveloped

Identify specific types of data (data sets, standards, examples of those data) that can be redeveloped

Identify specific types of data (data sets, standards, examples of those data) that can be redeveloped into Big Data tools and used to address the management of population health initiatives.

Managing the quality and cost of co-morbid populations is one of the most challenging aspects of health leadership. In this Discussion, you are challenged with selecting those data which will be most helpful in the management of Medicare populations. As health information exchanges (HIEs) progress at the state, federal, and nation level, health leaders are tasked to participate in the development of analytics tools that can be used to pull data and inform policy practice.
Scenario: Review the high volume Medicare Data Scenario located in the Learning Resources. In this scenario you are asked to work with a complex dataset of co-morbidity data of patients that have three concurrent co-morbid conditions (Chronic Condition Triads: Prevalence and Medicare Spending). How can data from HIT systems be used to formulate useful information to facilitate in the management of this population?
To prepare:
Using the health care information systems standards for clinical and financial data discussed in Week 6 (Chapter 10 of Health Care Information Systems: A Practical Approach for Health Care Management), identify specific types of data (data sets, standards, examples of those data) that can be redeveloped into Big Data tools and used to address the management of population health initiatives.
Define a “Big Data” analysis dataset to include in a data warehouse by identifying two specific types of clinical and financial data from the Chronic Condition Triads: Prevalence and Medicare Spending dataset in your Learning Resources that you feel could be used to drive behavior change in the patient and provider populations. This Big Data dataset will become the focus of your Discussion.
By Day 3

Post:
Explain why the two specific types of clinical and financial data you selected as your Big Data dataset would best affect behavior change in the type of co-morbid Medicare populations served in the scenario. Explain and assess how this Big Data dataset can change the behaviors of health care providers in the scenario. Assuming that your Big Data dataset is going to be shared in a regional health information exchange, explain how the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and private payers might use these regional data sets to increase value in delivering services to co-morbid Medicare patient populations in the region.

Case Study Scenario
Edward is a 37 year-old-man and aspiring musician. He has been married to Genevieve for 8 years, and together they have two young children. Edward and Genevieve live three doors down from Edward’s mother, Una. This turned out to be quite a convenient arrangement because, after Edward’s father passed away, Una would regularly spend time at Edward and Genevieve’s house minding the children.
Edward was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when he was 14, and since that time he has managed to maintain relatively stable blood glucose levels with a combination of diet, regular insulin and routine blood glucose monitoring.
Edward had recently been unwell, complaining to Genevieve of a sore throat and fever. He was treating this symptomatically with regular paracetamol and warm honey and lemon drinks. This was a pretty unfortunate time for Edward to be unwell because he had recently been offered some work out of town that he hoped would kick start his musical career. Genevieve thought it best if Edward went to see a doctor before he set off for these performances. However, Edward was never keen on visiting the doctor and refused to go. Instead, he reassured her that it was just a viral infection, and that in a few days things would start to improve.
While Edward was out of town, his viral infection began to be get worse. He developed muscle aches, and the pain in his throat meant that he could not eat or drink – let alone perform on stage. When he did not turn up at the agreed time for his first performance, the venue manager tried to contact Edward by phone. Receiving no response, he went to the hotel where Edward was staying, discovering him unconscious in the bathroom. The ambulance was immediately called, and upon arrival the paramedics assessed Edward as being in a diabetic coma. Despite instigating the appropriate life-preserving treatment, Edward suffered a cardiopulmonary arrest en route to
hospital. Resuscitation was commenced and after several minutes, Edward’s spontaneous circulation returned. On arrival at the hospital, Edward was intubated and ventilated. After a short stay in the emergency department, Edward was transferred to the intensive care unit.
Unfortunately, after several days of treatment it became apparent that Edward had suffered a serious hypoxic brain injury. Subsequently, although he was successfully weaned from the artificial ventilation and able to breathe spontaneously, he needed to be fed through a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube. He had an indwelling urinary catheter, and continued to receive regular subcutaneous insulin. Edward no longer moved spontaneously, although Una believed that he did make eye contact with her and blink appropriately in response to her questions.
Understandably, this was a devastating turn of events for Genevieve, both children and Una. Although they initially tried to remain optimistic about Edward’s potential for full recovery, as weeks turned into months, is became increasingly apparent that this would not happen. The healthcare team, caring for Edward formed the opinion that Edward was in a minimally conscious state. They believed that because of the extensive hypoxic brain injury Edward has no awareness of his surroundings, and no possibility of recovery.
