health service

This week’s discussion will be focused on a topic that is very relevant to today’s health care environment. We will be discussing the additional health care costs that need to be budgeted for as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
For your original post:
Find an article from a credible news source (New York Times, Chicago Tribune, etc.) or from a professional journal or association (HFMA, ACHE, etc.) that discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the budget of a particular health care organization or the health care industry in general. Be sure to provide a reference citation for your article.
Tell us how COVID-19 impacted the budget of the health care organization(s) discussed in the article.
If you were the manager of the type of organization that you mentioned in question #2, do you think that you would be best off using a static budget or a flexible budget

Business Law Touchstones

Touchstones are projects that illustrate your comprehension of the course material, help you refine skills, and demonstrate application of knowledge. You can work on a Touchstone anytime, but you can’t submit it until you have completed the units Milestone. Once you’ve submitted a Touchstone, it will be graded and counted toward your final course score.
Touchstone: Did Jim and Laura Buy a Car?
SCENARIO: Jim and Laura Buyer visit the local car dealership because they are interested in buying a new car. The car they currently have is aging and is starting to have mechanical problems. Jim and Laura would share the new car, and use it to go back and forth to work and school. Before going to the dealership, Jim and Laura decide that they can only afford $400.00 a month in car payments.

Once at the car dealership, Jim and Laura meet Stan Salesman. Stan shows them several vehicles and Jim and Laura test-drive several of the cars. Jim and Laura particularly like the blue 4-door sedan. Therefore, they agree to give Stan Salesman a $100.00 deposit to hold the car for a day. Stan Salesman does not give them the receipt but guarantees that the $100.00 is refundable. No documents were signed.

The next day, Stan Salesman calls Jim and Laura to ask them when they would like to take delivery of the car. Jim and Laura, on the way home from the dealership, decided that they were not going to buy the car because they did not want to spend that money each month. Therefore, Jim and Laura tell Stan Salesman that they have decided not to buy the car and request their $100.00 deposit back.

Stan insists that the $100.00 was a deposit on the car and was meant to be part of the contract to buy the car. Stan is very persistent and insistent that Jim and Laura have contracted to buy the car; therefore, the $100.00 will be applied to the purchase price of the car. Jim and Laura are shocked and angry as not only do they not want to spend the money, but now feel as though they are being duped by Stan Salesman.

Jim and Laura have an appointment to see a lawyer in a few days, but know you are a student taking a business law class and come to you for advice. They are very frazzled, and understandably upset that they may have just purchased a car. Since you have been taking business law, you have read and understand the elements of a contract and the defenses to a contract. Therefore, although you are not a lawyer, you provide some basic advice from what youve learned in your business law class.

ASSIGNMENT: In three to five (3-5) pages, advise Jim and Laura based on the above facts as presented and the material covered in the lessons. In your paper, be sure to address the following:

Define the elements of a legal contract using examples from the scenario where applicable.
Decide whether or not there was a contract for the purchase of the automobile.
Identify the facts from the scenario which support your decision on whether or not a contract exists for the purchase of the automobile.
Use at least two (2) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other websites do not qualify as quality academic resources.

In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the touchstone.
A. Assignment Guidelines
DIRECTIONS: Refer to the list below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.
1. Understanding of Contract Law
Have you defined the elements of a legal contract?
Have you used examples from the scenario to illustrate these elements?
2. Case Judgment and Support
Have you provided a judgment on the existence of a contract in this scenario?
Have you used specific examples from the scenario to defend your position?
3. Research
Have you referenced at least two academic sources in your essay?
Have you explained how each source relates to and supports your judgment on the case?

Critical Evaluation of Sample Case Studies

Critical Evaluation of Sample Case Studies

Your main task is to create a plan (one A4 sheet only) for your final assignment.

Read the following case studies (attached separately):
A case study of two study-abroad ESL learners by Yang and Kim (2011)

Think about the following questions and make notes as you read:

How do the researchers go about explaining the context of their study and their research design in terms of sampling, data, analysis and interpretation?
How do they draw links between their study and the existing research and theories?
What lessons do the papers present to you in terms of designing your own case study?
What would you like to replicate and what would you rather avoid and why?
What strengths and weaknesses can you see of the studies presented, their research design and implementation?

Use this template to plan your assignment. Remember the template is for guidance and is not a definitive document. You can adjust it to meet your individual needs. Aim to include as much as possible of the following information:

a statement of purpose
a research question (optional)
the theory or issue being addressed
a research context and focus that interest you
evidence of a critical approach
evidence of appropriate and relevant wider reading
evidence of the Harvard referencing system
