This assessment addresses the following course objective(s):

Examine the history and theories of the development of health care delivery in the U.S.

The United States federal government oversees multiple regulatory aspects of healthcare. For this assignment, you will identify a specific topic from the website www.regulations.govLinks to an external site. and analyze its impact. Then, you will summarize your knowledge for an internal audience, from the healthcare administrator perspective.

• Part I – Research

Navigate to the regulations.govLinks to an external site. website.   

Learn about the regulatory process here: https://www.regulations.gov/aboutLinks to an external site. and https://www.regulations.gov/learnLinks to an external site.

From the home page https://www.regulations.gov/Links to an external site., search for proposed rules or dockets in a topic area of your interest. This could include quality metrics, reimbursement changes, etc.

All key word results will be displayed. You may use the filter menu on the left sidebar to narrow the selection. Begin filtering results by “agency” such as CMS, HHS, AHRQ, etc. You may also filter by date range, and other options. 

Review the results. Select one that interests you, and that you feel would be relevant to share in a presentation with your desired [fictional] internal audience.

Keep in mind, these dockets are open for public comments. Read the comments, and consider the perspectives presented.  These comments may be biased or come from places of frustration, or a desire to enact or resist change.
