PHE 321 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In 2013, West Africa saw the beginning of one of the largest and longest lasting Ebola breakouts in history, which lasted for over two years. In 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that heart disease, killing some 614,348 individuals that year, was the leading cause of death in the United States. These examples show two different types of disease—one infectious, the other chronic—that have become focal points of public health. How do public health professionals work to solve such issues? The key is a thorough understanding of the etiology, behavior, and transmission of diseases.
The final project for this course is a disease brief, which will require you to select a chronic or infectious disease from the provided list and write a brief analysis of that disease to inform your health professional peers. You will cover the etiology of the disease, research the incidence and prevalence of the disease, explore treatment and prevention, and consider how the ecological model impacts this public health issue.
This project is divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three and Five. The final product will be submitted in Module Seven.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Analyze the etiology of infectious or chronic diseases to determine risk factors and modes of transmission
Discern the role of individual, community, and governmental levels of the ecological model in addressing public health issues and in impacting an individual’s health
Determine incidence and prevalence of disease among affected populations by analyzing public health data and statistics
Distinguish prevention and treatment options for chronic or infectious diseases that can inform strategies meant to improve public health
Prompt
Select one of the chronic or infectious diseases from the list provided to be the focus of your research. You will write a disease brief on your selected disease.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Overview: In this section, you will introduce the disease you selected, including an overview of its current impact on public health.
Level of Public Health Issue: Describe the disease selected and the impact it has on public health. In other words, is this a current public health issue, one that may become a major issue, or one that was a public health issue in the past?
Etiology: In this section, you will research the selected disease and analyze its etiology. Remember to use APA formatting for your citations.
Disease Progression: Based on your research, describe how the disease develops in the human body. Consider how the disease starts as well as the process the disease goes through as it progresses.
Risk Factors: Explain the major risk factors for contracting or developing this disease, using your research as support.
Transmission: Discuss whether the disease is chronic or infectious and how it is transmitted from individual to individual.
Incidence and Prevalence: In this section, you will analyze what the data reveals about the disease. Review the CDC website to interpret the available data for the chosen disease.
Incidence: Interpret what the available data reveals about the number of incidences of this disease, including how often individuals contract or develop this disease in the United States.
Prevalence: Determine how prevalent the disease is in the United States, including the most affected populations. Support your determination with available data.
Correlation With Risk Factors: Based on your interpretation of the available data and your research on risk factors, explain whether the incidence and prevalence of the disease correlates with the major risk factors you identified.
Treatment and Prevention: In this section, you will research and discuss prevention and treatment options available for the selected disease.
Prevention Strategies: Describe the common primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention strategies practiced regarding the selected disease. Support your description with specific examples.
Treatment: Describe common treatments used on individuals as the disease progresses and determine which may be appropriate for informing public health strategies.
Public Health Applications: Illustrate how the identified prevention and treatment options might be able to inform future strategies aimed at improving public health. Support your discussion with specific examples.
The Ecological Model and Public Health: In this section, you will review the roles that individuals, communities, and governmental levels have in addressing public health issues in general and how these can ultimately affect the health of an individual.
Individuals and Communities: What role do individuals and communities play in impacting public health issues? Provide examples to support your discussion.
Governmental Levels: What role do governmental levels play in addressing health issues in the public arena? Provide examples from the state and federal level to support your claims.
Individual’s Health: What effect do these levels have, ultimately, on the health of individuals suffering from the selected disease?
Milestones
Milestone One
In Module Three, you will select a disease for your final project from the provided list. Once you have selected your disease you will provide a brief overview, as well as identify resources for your chosen disease. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone One Rubric.
Milestone Two: Etiology and Incidence and Prevalence
In Module Five, you will write a short paper based upon the disease you chose for your final project. You will begin by identifying the risk factors for the disease. In addition to that, you will discuss modes of transmission, incidence, and prevalence for the chosen disease. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone Two Rubric.
Final Submission: Disease Brief
In Module Seven, you will submit your final project. It should be a complete, polished artifact containing all of the critical elements of the final project. It should reflect the incorporation of feedback gained throughout the course. This submission will be graded with the Final Project Rubric.

Intro: The financial health of the health care organization depends upon its ability to generate consistent and recurring funds from the services it provides. Collectively referred to as the revenue cycle (RCM), critical stages in this process include:
Patient registration.
Collection of demographics and payor source.
Rendering services.
Documenting services.
Establishing charges.
Preparing the claim or bill.
Submitting the claim.
Receiving payment.
Managing accounts receivable.
Decreasing payment delays and lost revenues is a point of interest for many health care managers tasked with oversight of the RCM process. Innovative approaches in technology have assisted with streamlining the RCM process and allowed for automation of many processes, resulting in expedited processing and quick remittance.
Managed care dollars represent a significant portion of all health care organizations’ reimbursements. As a result, health care organizations seek to establish contracts with large managed care organizations (MCOs). Negotiating and securing contracts with MCOs is important for several reasons, including preserving revenues, enhancing patient satisfaction, and generating additional sources of revenue.
All contracts will contain language outlining the administration of the contract along with the payment schedule. While the payment schedule may be seen as the most important element, the terms outlined within the contract are equally as vital to the financial success of the organization.
This assessment focuses on the revenue cycle and how technological innovations have impacted reimbursement for health care organizations. You will take on the role of a patient access supervisor. One of your job functions entails educating new hires about the revenue cycle process.
Instructions: 
For this assessment, prepare a 10-slide (excluding Title and Reference slides) PowerPoint presentation, with Speaker Notes, outlining the various steps of the revenue cycle. Use the Revenue Cycle Process Template [PPTX] Download Revenue Cycle Process Template [PPTX]to help you structure your presentation.
For the scenario, imagine you are a patient access supervisor who must educate a group of new hires about the revenue cycle process, including:
The revenue cycle process.
Their potential responsibilities.
Why the process is important to a care organization.
Challenges that they may face in their work.
When structuring your presentation, consider the following points and questions to ensure that you are meeting the following scoring guide criteria:
Describe the purpose of each step in the revenue cycle process.
“Describe” means to give an account in words of (someone or something), including all the relevant characteristics, qualities, or events.
The steps within the revenue cycle process include admissions, case management, documentation, coding, billing, and other steps.
Describe key responsibilities of individuals who work in the revenue cycle process.
Describe key components (such as verifying insurance, financial counseling, coding of documented services provided, and other components) and who is responsible (individuals such as coders, registration clerks, and others).
Describe the consequences to the organization of failing to fulfill key responsibilities in the revenue cycle process.
Describe additional steps and challenges in the revenue cycle process when working with an uninsured patient.
Provide information for the new staff regarding options available for the uninsured.
Identify any additional steps throughout the revenue cycle one must be aware of when working with an uninsured patient.
Identify the challenges that exist for the revenue cycle due to the delivery of uncompensated care.
Adhere to the rules of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
“Grammar” refers to the basic rules for how sentences are constructed and how words combine to make sentences (for example, word order, case, and tense).
“Usage” refers to correct word choice and phrasing, particularly with regard to the meanings of words and phrases.
“Mechanics” refers to correct use of capitalization, punctuation, and spelling.
With the exception of the title slide and the reference slide, each slide should contain detailed speaking notes.
Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and references.
Provide in-text citations within the speaking notes, just like you would in a paper, to show where the information was obtained.
Be sure to include an APA-formatted Reference slide at the end of the presentation.
Media presentation: Use the Revenue Cycle Process Template [PPTX] Download Revenue Cycle Process Template [PPTX]provided.
Create 10 slides (excluding Title and Reference slides) that you could present in 10–20 minutes.
3–5 bullet points per slide; 5–7 words per bullet point.
Resources: Cite at least three scholarly resources, as researched in this assessment’s studies.
Your textbook can be one of the three.
APA guidelines: Use APA style for references and citations. When appropriate, use APA-formatted headings. For more information, refer to Evidence and APA.
Slide font and font size: Times New Roman, using appropriate size and weight for a presentation, generally 24–28 points for headings and no smaller than 18 points for bullet-point text.
Speaker Notes: Font size no larger than 12 point, single-spaced, indented paragraphs; include in-text citations in Speaker Notes.
