This HSM420 Course Project provides you with an opportunity to select one important health insurance, managed care, or healthcare reform challenge (or problem to solve) and analyze it in greater depth in a written format. The paper should critically analyze the issues related to your topic within the context of the current healthcare environment, and also considering future directions in U.S. medical care. Web references, books, and professional journal articles should be considered as references. And don’t overlook the DeVry Online Library as an important source of information for your paper! NOTE: Other topics related to course content and TCOs are acceptable, but only as approved in advance by your professor. The Course Project is worth 370 points (50 for the Course Project topic, 100 for the Course Project outline, 170 for the final Course Project, and 50 for the Peer Review). It is expected that you will provide a focused topic, including a statement of the key challenges or problems currently associated with the topic in America. It is expected that the outline be submitted in a formal outline format as demonstrated below. Your outline should show enough detail to demonstrate that you have begun thinking about the organization of your paper and the research required into the topic. After your outline, please submit a listing of the sources you have alrea
dy identified for your paper. It is expected that the final version of your Course Project will be 7–10 pages in length, with 6–8 sources identified. APA in-text citation is required in addition to listing all of your sources on a works cited page at the end of the document. Your grade will be affected if you do not cite or identify your sources correctly. After you have submitted your project in Week 7, you will then attach your final project to a discussion posting in Week 8. Please make sure to do this as early as possible. You will then find two other projects to review in the Week 8 Discussion and submit your critiques in a discussion post. Your final Course Project must include the following sections in addition to a cover page and table of contents. It may also include other sections if you deem it necessary and appropriate. The following are the best practices in preparing this paper. The purpose of an introduction or opening: Include in the introduction a reason for the audience to read the paper.
