HMGT322 Health Care Financial Management
Week 8 Discussion
This week’s discussion will focus on the Group PowerPoint Presentations on Best Practices in Healthcare Finance. Discussion forums have been set up with each Group’s Best Practice PP. Please respond to all of the presentations (excluding the one you participated in).
In responding, provide positive and constructive feedback on the best practices they highlight. Do you agree with their best practices, why or why not? Do they provide sufficient support for the best practices? Is the presentation easy to follow? What do you like best about the presentation? What recommendations for improvement do you have about the presentation?
Each group is to develop a powerpoint presentation devoted to the best financial practices for health care. Each presentation should:
Identify and describe your healthcare organization (e.g. hospital, physician organization, laboratory, other).
List at least five “Best financial practices” that you believe are important for your healthcare organizations to follow (One Best Practice per participant). Base your choice on your reading in this course and research.
Explain why each of these practices are important for your healthcare organizations given the current policy and regulatory environment.
Explain what can go wrong if the practice is not followed.
Post your group presentation to the Assignment folder by Sunday at 11:59 pm. The Professor will post your group’s PowerPoint at the beginning of Week 8 for the week 8 discussion. Your final grade for the group presentation will be based on the PowerPoint that is posted and will take into account your classmates feedback.
