The Affordable Care Act and its Impact on the Fiscal State of Hospitals   The patient protection and affordable care act reforms were anticipated to influence positive change for hospital finances. The expansion of state financed Medicaid programs promised to lower the uncompensated care costs that were incurred by hospitals. The expansion of the Medicaid programs included accommodating children below 26 years to gain medical coverage under a caregiver’s insurance plan. The age where a child was considered dependent and covered by the parent’s insurance was previously 18 years or 22 years if the child was a full-time college learner. Medicaid also influenced a significant increase in the number of Newly Insured as the state targeted to insure all Americans. The uncompensated care costs resulting from the expansion of Medicaid is significant, these uncompensated care costs are the responsibility of private sponsors, as well as governments. Medical institutions offload higher uncompensated care costs when more people get insured under the Affordable care act. The impact of uncompensated care is a reduction in hospital spending. After the Affordable Care Act or…

  Response to peer analysis Name of student: Name of the professor: Institution: Date:             In the peer document by Helen Hunt Jackson on a Century of Dishonor (1881), the author discusses the escapades that the native Americans underwent in the hands of the united states. In this case, I agree with Helen that some of the injustices that the natives suffered in the hands of the United States include; poverty and land grabbing. Notably, this is revealed by the Meriam Report, published in 1928, which showed how the US government used treaties or force to acquire lands from the natives, and how the Indians were living in extreme poverty accompanied by inadequate housing and poor diets (Stefon, 1975). In this document, I have personally learned very many things about the relationship that existed between the federal government and the Native Americans during this time, which is quite in line with what we are currently learning in class. This document has significantly enlightened me to some extent as far as American history is concerned. However,…

Ponzi Schemes Name Institution       Ponzi Schemes Bernard Madoff was a person ripping off investors and companies of their hard earn money. Despite the Ponzi scheme being reported to the stock exchange commission, no action was taken. Harry, the whistleblower, made several submissions to the stock exchange commission with no response. He claims the investigators in the commission are trained to look at papers and assess any fraudulent activities, but they are not trained to look at the financial details in the documents. The activities of Madoff caused severe damage to several investors and companies when the scheme went under. With Madoff and his agents living a luxurious life, the clients of the project were being evicted from their houses, with most of their money gone with the scheme. The investors and companies invested their money in the agency with a 12% interest per year. Therefore they expected to be rewarded well when the time came to redeem their money. Madoff operated the scheme for more than 20 years, and therefore, in the duration, he had amassed a…

Political Science Political Science What is the difference between a state and a nation and explain why they may not match A state acts as an independent sovereign government that exercises control in a certain bounded area, and whose boundaries are clearly stated and defined and recognized internationally by other states (Barker p.442 2017). A nation is comprised of groups of people sharing the same culture, but they do not have sovereignty. Consequently, both a nation and a state exist in a mutually dependent relationship where the nation provides identity and reason for the existence of states, and the states provide institutions to govern the interests of a nation. One of the differences is that states and nation have different elements. A state is characterized by elements such as people’s population, the territory of the state, government and the sovereignty, while in the nation is comprised of a group of people who believe in unity and conscious (Barker p.445 2017). Through territory, race, religion, language, and history determine the elements of formation of a nation. Elements in a nation may,…
