After you have read the Healthcare Delivery Systems and OrganizationOpen this document with ReadSpeaker docReader article, write a 3- to 4-page paper responding to the following questions:
What role does the nurse practitioner and/or DNP-prepared nursing student have in the provision of quality health care in an era of reform?
Should consumers enter the healthcare marketplace through a gatekeeper?
Is it possible that such a condition already occurs, but the gatekeeper is a health insurance organization?
Is it possible that the graduate nursing student as case manager might be a more effective gatekeeper?
How might the graduate nursing student be positioned to best provide low-cost and high-quality care?
How might a group of four graduate nursing students, including a nurse practitioner, nurse anesthetist, nurse midwife, and clinical nurse specialist, offer unique services as a case management team?
For this assignment, make sure that the page count does not include the title page or reference list, uses formal writing mechanics, and is in APA 7th edition format. The paper should include at least five references published in the last five years, one of which could be the course textbook.
Be sure to think creatively. Your response to these questions just might be the edge that graduate nursing students offer in our evolving world of health reform. The paper should demonstrate the knowledge you gained relative to dispersed models of healthcare delivery and models of healthcare delivery.
