In this discussion,Compare and contrast two methods of reimbursement, describing the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Of the two methods you chose, which do you think provides the best process from a patient perspective?
Types of reimbursement :
Retrospective Reimbursement
In the retrospective payment method of reimbursement, the third-party payer bases reimbursement on the actual resources expended to deliver the services. Since the total amount of resources are not known until after the services are rendered, this is a retrospective, or look-back, methodology. Historically, this was the predominant method of reimbursement.
8In retrospective payment methods, the payer determines the total reimbursement of the health services after the patient has received the services. For example, it is known that the patient will receive preoperative laboratory services, but the actual laboratory services the physician orders and completes for the patient is unknown until after the visit. It could also be the amount of services the patient receives, such as for inpatient admissions. For example, it is known that the patient will be admitted for heart surgery, but the number of days the patient stays in an acute care setting is unknown until the patient is discharged. Examples of retrospective reimbursement methodologies are fee schedule, percent of billed charges, and per diem.
Prospective Reimbursement
Prospective reimbursement is a healthcare payment method in which providers receive a predetermined amount for all the services they provide during a defined timeframe. Within prospective payment methodologies the term episode-of-care refers to the care delivered within a defined period (Belliveau 2016, n.p.). In the prospective payment method, the unit of payment is the encounter, established period of time, or covered life, not each individual health service. The prospective payment method is an attempt to correct perceived faults in the retrospective reimbursement method by incenting providers to provide more cost-effective care for a fixed rate. Thus, the prospective reimbursement method controls costs on a grand or systematic scale.
An episode of care is the health services that a patient receives
•For a specific health condition or illness
•During a period of relatively continuous care from a provider

As health care leaders, it is important to understand that health care is quite a dynamic field. Its constant changes are a result of continuing trends in regulation, policy, patient and provider advocacy efforts, as well as increasingly sophisticated technology and industry benchmarking guidelines.
Address the information below as it pertains to your topic “Analyze the impact of technology on how health care services are delivered. The impact of technology on employee performance, organizational structure, and management planning may also be considered”, in an eight to ten slide (excluding title and reference slides) PowerPoint presentation. Be sure to include all of the following influences below:
1)  Changes in client characteristics
2)  Regulation of the health care industry 
3)  Reimbursement patterns and mandates 
4)  Restructuring of health care organizations 
5)  Impact of technology 
6)  Ongoing social and ethical factors
7)  Your presentation should conclude with a summary describing the following concerns: 
o  Overall, why should health care managers be aware of this change and trend?
o  What impact does this trend have on the stakeholder groups involved (e.g., patients, providers, administrators, third-party payers, legislators, etc.) for a specific organization specified (e.g., for profit, nonprofit, hospital, outpatient clinic, nursing home, etc.).
Your presentation must include detailed speaker’s notes (i.e., at least 150 words) for each slide as well as a minimum of one to two current, scholarly web sources. 

1) **********minimum 3 full pages ( not words)**************************** (cover or reference page not included)
2)¨**********APA norms  (All paragraphs must be narrative and cited in the text- each paragraphs)
3)********** It will be verified by Turnitin and SafeAssign
4)  Minimum 4 references not older than 5 years  (Only scholarly papers and research or pages from official sources such as CDC, WHO, etc. are accepted)
5) Each answer must be identified according to the question number. Check the list of questions.
Your answer should start objectively answering the question

1 )Find the Final Recommendation Summary for the screening you are evaluating.
2) Explain the guideline, the correct application of the screening, and the epidemiology behind the guidance.
3) Content  should include epidemiologic data such as statistical information as available ex. morbidity, mortality, incidence and prevalence of condition.
4)Identify the methodology and measures for screening.
5)Include the risk factors, risk assessment, testing interval, description of the patient population,screening test recommendations and other factors relative to the guideline.
6) Discuss the guideline’s support in a critical analysis, based on the outcomes of studies used in the screening guidance publication.
7) What key factors are supported by evidence, such as age, methods, measures and intervals?
8) Consider using the rubric sections as level one headings within the paper.
