MHA5201 Health Resources and Policy Analysis

Unit II Project

Management Action Plan (MAP): Part 1

Throughout this course, you will be completing a project that you will create in parts in Units II–VI. You will add each part to build your final submission, which will be due in Unit VII. After submitting each part, you are encouraged to make corrections to previous parts based on your professor’s feedback.

The development of legislation as a part of policy formulation begins by first clarifying a central problem or opportunity for improvement (OFI), which is what you will be doing in Part 1 of your MAP.

First, select one of the major health resource and policy analysis areas discussed in your textbook.

Note: If you do not wish to use one of the topics listed above, you may request a special topic of interest from your professor with a justification as to why it is more appropriate to your career and academic goals to study another topic.

Second, your paper should meet the criteria below as you clarify your problem or OFI. Clearly describe the problem or OFI you chose for your MAP.

Why is it important to set an agenda to resolve this problem right now? What are the consequences of not resolving this problem right now?

Explain how using evidence-based public health (EBPH) will help resolve this problem.
