or this assignment, you will research and write about an issue and country outside of the US. As you learned in Epidemiology, to be able to diagnose the health of one’s country/community and its people, there is a need to understand the demographics and social variables affecting a population which may cause health issues. Healthy People 2020 identifies this as the social determinants of health. As you write about your selected country and issue, you will describe some of those social determinants.
When you examine this issue, you should identify the following items:
What country did you choose and what are some of the social determinants of health? (You do not need to write out the social determinants of health in complete sentences, you may bullet them)
What is the healthcare policy issue you chose and how and why do the identified social determinants of health contribute to the issue you selected?
What are the healthcare politics of your country and how do they drive your chosen country’s response to the healthcare policy issue?
How does the healthcare policy issue you chose affect the common citizen of your chosen country on a local basis?
How does the healthcare policy issue you chose affect the US and the international community as a whole?
Provide conclusions (worth 30 points, needs to be substantive) which can be drawn from your research about the healthcare policy issue and include projections that can be made about the future of this issue in your country over the next 5 years.
Note the conclusion bullets and requirements and what it should contain.
