This is not a paper! This is a Discussion Question for Mareting in Health Care class requiring 200-250 word response.

“Defining the Health Care System”  Please respond to the following:

• Describe a possible change in one of the domains of analysis in the framework for understanding health care systems and one likely result of that change. Explain your rationale. Analyze the two working models for understanding different health care systems and determine which model would be most useful to you in your current (or future) position in the health care industry. Provide specific examples to support your response.

I want 100% grade and original work.

In the business world, the final phase of design thinking is where a solution strategy is selected and a business case is made for the viability of the chosen solution. If the previous phases have been enacted diligently, the proposed solution has a very good chance of leading to an innovation.

By now, you have identified an issue or problem in your workspace that can be improved in some tangible way. You have generated a list of ideas that could lead to this improvement, and collaborated with your classmates to gain alternate perspectives and solutions. It is now time to step back from this process and evaluate how design-thinking can be applied to real-world business problems at your organization.

For this Application Assignment, imagine you have an opportunity to meet with the VP of Customer Services. You have 15 minutes to present on the value of the department’s use of design thinking to come up with a solution to a problem the team is experiencing.

Submit a Power-point-style presentation with a pitch script in the Notes section outlining your pitch for the use of design thinking to solve a problem. Be sure to include the following, with any other relevant information that you think is essential to an effective pitch:

• • Identify the potential customers or end users that would be positively affected if the organization adopted the more formal design thinking process.
  • Explain whether design thinking could be effectively integrated into the organization, and why?
  • How would you convince stakeholders within the organization of its value?

Be sure to draw on the articles by Brown (2008) and Brown and Anthony (2011) from this week’s Resources to support your conclusions.

When you think of design in the business context, do you think of the appealing packaging of a product like the iPhone or an iconic logo like the one on the Coca-Cola bottle? Design thinking, in the business context, refers not only to these aesthetic dimensions, but to a creative-thinking process that carefully considers user needs, financial possibilities, and many other factors. The design-thinking method is a new way to bring creativity to each step of the product or service development model. As you read this article, consider how creativity, when brought to every step of business processes, can lead to innovation.

People feel better when they think they are getting a great bargain when they shop. Knowing this, some retailer’s markup items above the traditional retail price and then offer a 60 percent discount. If they had simply discounted the normal retail price by 20 percent, the resulting “sale price” would have been the same. One retailer says that he is just making shoppers happy that they got a great deal when he inflates the retail price before discounting.

Significantly marking up prices in order to offer “deep discounts” is not an unethical pricing practice per se, but it may be considered misleading advertising. The retailer is not really reducing its profits as a result of offering the sale price, even though a 60 percent discount implies a financial sacrifice on the part of the retailer for the benefit of the customer.

The situation described above could, perhaps, be considered a sales promotion that uses deception or manipulation.  

1. As a consumer think of a place you like to shop at because of the so-called great bargains, coupons, cash back and or discounts they offer. 
2. From your shopping experience explain if the discounts you received on your purchase you feel was a bargain deal or do you feel you overpaid.
3. Did you believe the retailer is sacrificing revenue for you the consumers’ benefit? 
4. Why or Why not?  
5. Do you find their sales practices to be ethical and beneficial to the consumer or perhaps unethical and misleading?

The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:  

• Write between 500 – 750 words (approximately 2 – 3 pages) using Microsoft Word.

• Use font size 12 and 1” margins.
• Include cover page and reference page.
• At least 60% of your paper must be original content/writing.
• No more than 40% of your content/information may come from references.
• Use at least two references from outside the course material, preferably from EBSCOhost.  Text book, lectures, and other materials in the course may be used, but are not counted toward the two reference requirement.

line evaluate the chart at the link posted below. Pretend for a little while that Astrology is real, and determine what you think the astrological sign of each of the artists listed below based upon what you know about them and their work.

What would you say their astrological sign is, and what about them and their work leads you to believe this? I’m looking to see you show your familiarity with the artists, the work they did, and the styles and artistic movements they were associated with. A well-developed paragraph or two should do for each artist. Try to have some fun with it.

AGAIN YOU ARE WRITING ABOUT EACH OF THE ARTISTS LISTED, so you should have a minimum of four well-developed paragraphs.
