Discussion post (week 11)

As discussed in the textbook, the health care industry continues to face challenges and patients are becoming more aware of patient rights with access to health care provider information.

1. Specify what you believe to be the greatest challenge that the health care industry faces today. Provide a rationale for your response.
2. Then, go to Strategic Plan FY 2018–2022 from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS). Has the HHS strategically planned to address the challenge that you identified?
3. Locate a health care organization that is positioned to address the challenge that you identified. How has—or how can—this organization address the challenge you described?
