You\’re getting a lot of information about the US healthcare system over the course of the semester- so much so that it all might blend together and make it hard to pick out interesting tidbits or specific challenges. I find that one of the best ways to do this is to directly compare aspects of our healthcare system to one that is completely different (which is pretty much all of them!). For this assignment, you are going to compare and contrast the US healthcare system with that of another country from the list below. This is a structured paper- that means you must address all the points below for full points. This paper must be 3-4 pages, in full APA format (see https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/18/ (Links to an external site.)for a template), and use a minimum of 5 references, 3 of which must be peer-reviewed articles published after 2005 (click here to see how to find these articles in the UCF Library (Links to an external site.)). Wikipedia or other types of unofficial sources may not be used. The entire paper must be written in your own words- do not plagiarize or use any direct quoting. The paper must be written in full sentences and in paragraph form (i.e. no bullets or numbered lists). Please be sure to proofread your paper for grammar and spelling before submitting- if you are not completely comfortable with your writing skills, you can set up in-person or online appointments with the UCF Writing Center for free help with formatting, outlining, proofreading, etc.Potential countries:AustraliaBrazilCanadaChinaCosta RicaDenmarkEgyptFranceGermanyIndiaIsraelJapanLebanonMexicoRussiaSaudi ArabiaSingaporeSouth AfricaSwedenVietnamThe paper will include 3 sections (please separate them using subheadings):Section 1: Compare and contrast basic health outcomes (including but not limited to measures such as infant mortality, rates of chronic and/or infectious disease, life expectancy, health insurance coverage, use of drugs/alcohol/tobacco, rates of obesity, etc.). Include at least 7 different health-related statistics in this section and address why you chose the indicators you selected (e.g. personal interest, a large disparity between the countries, parity between the countries, etc.). This site should get you started (and yes, you can use it as one of your references: World Health Organization Statistics, 2015 (Links to an external site.)).Section 2: Discuss strengths and weaknesses of BOTH systems- for example, cost, quality, access, technology, workforce, demographics, external challenges such as political situation or war, etc. Provide at least 2 strengths and 2 weaknesses for each country.Section 3: Compare and contrast both countries on their handling of TWO of the following issues:Substance abuse and mental healthDemographicsHealth information technologyHealthcare coverage and insuranceHealthcare workforceIndividuals with disabilitiesIndividuals living in povertyRural healthcareEnd of life optionsTip: Be sure to do some initial research BEFORE you settle on your country of choice to ensure that you can find all of the information required to complete the paper.Exceptional papers may be awarded 5 extra credit points.

Decision Analysis Assignment
BUS 510

1. Task
Information Technology (IT) has been playing an important role in decision-making. This assignment gives you an opportunity to develop your skills of using IT tools in decision-making and practice evidence-based decision-making.

Students will form groups with 1 to 2 members to solve a business problem. Each group is responsible for conducting data analysis and writing a business report. You may need to use Excels Pivot Table to help you analyze data. The assignment requires two deliverables: a written business report and an excel spreadsheet with evidence of data analysis.

2. Business Case
You are a manager of a book wholesaler who sells books at about 25% discount (discount may vary from one title to another, see detailed discounts in the dataset). The data file shows the last few months book sales and discounts. You are trying to save cost and must decide on where to purchase the books and a sequence of opening credit accounts with each publisher.

In order to simplify the issue, we assume that the book publisher offers approximately a 50% discount. When an order is 30 or more units (one unit each of thirty titles or 30 units of the same title or any combination), the shipping is free. However, if an order is less than 30 units, then the publisher charges shipping fee that can amount to 15% or even more.

Another factor that must be considered is that one has to establish an account with each publisher. This is a costly process in terms of time and cost. It may take five days, and cost around $200 in labor and administrative cost.

Determine the top five publishers to open an account with, and write a business report that outlines how you have developed it. Make sure that you clearly state any assumptions and provide evidence supporting your decision-making. Due to limited cash reserve, no one order may cover demand of more than one month.

3. Data
The data file contains the following columns:
Date: The date of the order placement
Polist: The order number
Qty: The quantity ordered from each title (ISBN)
ISBN: The book identifier
Binding: The binding of the book
List Price: The list price according to the publisher or distributer. This is the price before the discount given to the wholesaler
Quote Price: This is the price that the wholesaler gave to the customer before the discount
Discount: The discount given by the wholesaler to the customer
WholeSaler_Price: The price the wholesaler will charge the customer (price after applying the discount)
Publisher: The name of the publisher
Comment: Remember that data may not be clean. One possible source of error is the publisher name. Make sure that all publishers with similar names are grouped together as one. For example Penguin, Penguin Publisher and Penguin for children are the same publisher.

4. Deliverables
Submit an electronic copy of business report and the related excel spreadsheet to SafeAssign on the Blackboard
Hand in a hard copy of the business report in class
