In this this assignment you will be comparing outpatient
services to those offered by hospitals. As medical professionals we
need to understand the roles of each and how they differ.
Create a PowerPoint presentation that addresses the following:
- Compare the
roles of outpatient services and hospitals related to their place
within the health care delivery system. How are they similar? How
are they different?
- How have the roles of
outpatient services and hospitals evolved from historical times to
the present?
- Identify three functions shared by both outpatient
services and hospitals. How do outpatient services and hospitals
differ in their approach to these functions? How are they similar?
- Which type of health provider (outpatient services or hospitals)
has been most effective in caring for underserved populations?
- Explain your reasoning. Are the financial challenges faced by
hospitals different from those of outpatient services? How are they
similar?
Your presentation must have 10-12 slides and cite a
minimum of two references other than your textbook.
