You are the CFO for a community hospital that is preparing for contract negotiation with its largest nongovernmental payer, which accounts for nearly 30% and growing of all patient-care revenue at the hospital.

When they refuse to increase inpatient payment rates in a manner more consistent with Medicare, you must determine how to negotiate a better outcome and what the risk would be to lose them as a payer altogether.

To view the scenario, click the link below. Then return to this assignment to submit your video:

Record and upload a 3- to 4-minute video in which you present the points made during the negotiations, both for the increased payment rates and the potential loss of the payer.

Essay should address why you selected OT as a career and how an Occupational Therapy degree relates to your immediate and long-term professional goals. Describe how your personal, educational, and professional background will help you achieve your goals.

– Ever since a little girl I\’ve known I\’ve wanted to work in the health field. I started working with children when teaching gymnastics to ages 4-18 for 4 years. I realized my passion in those moments ( include how teaching gymnastics relates to occupational therapy using similar skills to teach as to rehabilitate.) I also volunteered with a recreational cheer leading team to help instruct the team through the season. Before beginning college my vision was blurry. I knew I was a hands on person, wanted to work in the health field, and knew with children and to do little amount of school. My cousin is a nurse and one day at the gym we ran into her friend that was an occupational therapist. When she introduced me to her she said \” now this is someone who actually loves her job\”. So i briefly asked my cousin afterwards.. What is an occupational therapist? I had no idea what occupational therapy was. I did a quick google search and became interested in it. That same year we found out my autistic brother needed occupational therapy. out of curiosity i went with him to one of his sessions to watch. I immediately became obsessed with the career. From one second to the next I knew and did not doubt my future career..
– OT relates to my long term goals because it is my future. I want to help people in need for the rest of my life.

Identifying Scholarly Journal Articles

Scholarly journal articles are the foundation of the sources for an academic research paper. Of the six sources required for your research paper, at least three must be scholarly journal articles.

Please review this webpage from the UMUC library: Identify and Locate Scholarly Journals

Then, search the UMUC library for sources related to the effects of technology in some area. This may be the topic that you have worked with in earlier discussions and/or the topic of your research paper. Identify one scholarly journal article, and post a reference entry for it here, in APA style. Remember that you are accessing the article online, so you should include the DOI or the URL of the journal homepage, as explained in this library tutorial.

Explain how you could tell that this was a scholarly journal article.

Evaluating Web Resources-
Sometimes you may want to use sources that you found on the free Web. This means sources that are available to all, for example through a search engine.

If you use sources from the free Web, you will want to evaluate them first to make sure that they are reliable and appropriate for inclusion in your paper.

Please examine this webpage from the UMUC Library: Evaluating Web Resources

Then, use a search engine such as Google to find a source related to the effects of technology. Again, you may use the same topic you have used for prior discussions and/or your research topic. Provide the URL (the web address) of the source. Write a paragraph evaluating the source for use in a research paper. You might decide that this would be a good source to use in a research paper, or you might decide that this would not be a good source to use in a research paper. Either way, provide your reasons.
