Takeda Patient Assistance Case Study
A 30 year old patient, with no prescription coverage, needed assistance with his high blood pressure medication. After reviewing his insurance and submitting his application, it was determined by the pharmaceutical company he would be approved for the Takeda Patient Assistance Program. When I informed the patient that he was approved in the program he was very thankful and cried tears of joy.

    As a resolution analyst at UnitedHealthcare (UHC), over ninety percent of my decisions are based on evidence provided by providers’ and members’ health policy contract and UHC reimbursement policies. The health policy contract provides payment regulations on how to correctly make a decision of either a claim is to be denied, paid or if additional steps are required. In a case where a member is asserting that an out-of-network provider should be reimbursed in-network based on their research involves investigating beyond the member’s contract and UHC reimbursement policies to justify an overturn. If the member provides proofs such as a copy of the participating provider listing on UHC's website or the provider proper Tax ID to support their…

    Grady Memorial Hospital frequently referred to as Grady Hospital or simply Grady, is the largest hospital in the state of Georgia and is the public hospital for the city of Atlanta. Historical segregation of its hospital units meant that it was also called "The Gradys," a name that still surfaces among elderly Atlanta residents, especially African Americans.

    The Center for Disease Control recommends the public to get an annual flu shot. If each person on campus were to get vaccinated they would be protected and prevent those who are more vulnerable to catching the virus. According to the Center for Disease Control, there is a 71% reduction in flu-related hospitalizations among adults of all ages because of the influenza vaccine. However, if some people do catch influenza the vaccine will make the illness less mild. USF should promote influenza vaccines to students, faculty and staff by offering the vaccine on campus at the USF Health Clinic. The vaccine offered will be convenient to those who do not have a motor vehicle. In addition, USF can work with health departments to reduce the price of…

    The CHOC Children’s Breathmobile is the mobile asthma clinic dedicated to serving underserved children who may be unable to travel or pay for preventive asthma care in Orange County. As a volunteer, I helped nurses organize patients' charts, fax medical records, and confirm appointment schedules for patients' parents. Sometimes, I came with nurses and doctors to clinic sites to serve as a translator or simply shadow doctors. One doctor told me that regardless of whether the patients had insurance, the doctor would not turn anybody away if they were in need. Through this experience, I learned that the most gratification I could get is not receiving, but giving back to the…

    Managed Care Case Study

    Managed care contributes a vast amount to the healthcare system. Without managed care systems I don’t think health facility, insurances agencies and companies would manage. Agree, professionals are to adapt and accommodate changes based on contracts between managed care systems and other agencies. In my opinion, the technology advancement within the health care system has improved tremendously in a positive way. For example; when I switched my daughter primary doctor around shot time, me being old fashion handed her the paper shot record. She replied “ma’am it already imported into the system; we don’t use the paper anymore.” This is totally a successful and less stressful outcome on a person if it was to get lost or misplaced. These…

    For the past several years, the health care and insurance industries in America have been undergoing significant reform in order to rein in the high cost of delivering health care services. Managed care has become a cornerstone of this process (Strickland, 1995). The case management industry (with its focus on cost containment, managed competition, and quality care) is playing an increasingly important role in the managed care environment (Owens, 1996). According to Mullahy (1995a), the number of case managers has risen astronomically in recent years. These individuals come from diverse professional backgrounds and practice settings that include nursing, rehabilitation counseling, and social work.…

    As a healthcare provider, I wish to give the best medical care to the patient but the dilemma would be patient would not be able to afford the cost of the medication without insurance reimbursement.

    These past five weeks have been a true eye opening experience I always knew that there were so many people who were uninsured or underinsured. Over these past five weeks I have learned so much about the healthcare industry and what is happening in the world around us. Many people tend to be blind when it comes down to the issues at hand. I fall into the statistic when it comes to being uninsured or not having enough coverage, it discourages people to seek the treatment that they need because they are scared of what is going to happen or if they are going to receive proper care like every other individual or treated differently because they don’t have insurance or money to pay it can be as simple as not being able to afford the treatment itself. I chose this particular topic to write my final assignment because I can honestly say that I can relate to this issue and it is a serious problem that has been facing Americans for a while now.…
