Case Study: Bobby, a 13-year-old male, was hospitalized following a perforated appendix that required surgery. Bobby has an open wound requiring dressing changes twice daily. He is currently on contact precautions for a methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection. The estimated date of discharge is five-to-ten-days post-op and will include long-term antibiotics and wound care.

The nurse notes on the assessment- Previously Bobby was talkative and related his enthusiasm for school and upcoming science competitions. However, today, he was withdrawn and stated, “I’m just tired”.

  • What are the impacts when an adolescent is separated from their peer group?
  • How should the nurse arrange for visitation and playtime during Bobby’s hospitalization and isolation?
  • What concerns with body image would the nurse anticipate?
  • Why is “play” an important part of childhood?

POLITICS AND THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT

minimum of two (2) scholarly references are required

The Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly known as Obamacare, has been a subject of significant political debate in the United States since its enactment in 2010. Legislators often face complex decisions when considering the repeal or replacement of the ACA, as their primary objective is to secure re-election. This discussion explores how cost-benefit analysis has affected efforts to repeal/replace the ACA and how analyses of voters' views can impact legislative leaders' recommendations or positioning on national healthcare policies.

Cost-Benefit Analysis in ACA Repeal/Replace Efforts

1.
Cost Implications for Legislators: Legislators have a vested interest in maintaining fiscal responsibility to appeal to constituents concerned about government spending (Dudley & Park, 2019). A thorough cost-benefit analysis is critical in evaluating potential replacement plans, as they must ensure that any new healthcare legislation is financially sustainable in the long term.

2.
Political Consequences: The cost-benefit analysis also considers the political consequences of supporting or opposing ACA repeal/replace efforts. Legislators who supported the ACA's repeal without a viable alternative risked backlash from constituents who benefited from the ACA's provisions Conversely, those opposing repeal faced pressure from their party and special interest groups advocating for change.

3.
Public Opinion: Cost-benefit analyses should include public opinion data, as supporting an unpopular policy can jeopardize a legislator's chances of re-election. Surveys and polls assessing public sentiment toward the ACA and proposed replacements help lawmakers gauge potential electoral consequences.

Voter Views and National Healthcare Policy Decisions

1.
Constituent Preferences: The views of constituents play a pivotal role in shaping legislative leaders' positions on national healthcare policies. Legislators closely monitor their constituents' opinions on issues like Medicare and Medicaid, as these programs significantly impact healthcare access (Hood, 2017).

2.
Party Alignment: Legislative leaders often align their positions with their party's platform to maintain party support and increase re-election prospects (Hood, 2017). Party leaders may use voter opinion data to shape their policy recommendations and positions on issues like Medicare and Medicaid.

3.
Interest Groups: Voter views are influenced not only by constituents but also by interest groups advocating for specific healthcare policies. Legislative leaders must balance the preferences of these influential groups with those of their constituents when making policy recommendations 

Conclusion

Legislators, driven by the imperative of re-election, are significantly influenced by cost-benefit analyses when considering ACA repeal/replace efforts. These analyses guide decisions related to the financial sustainability and political implications of such efforts. Additionally, analyses of voter views are crucial in shaping national healthcare policy decisions, including those affecting Medicare and Medicaid. These views impact legislative leaders' positions, aligning them with party platforms and accommodating the preferences of both constituents and interest groups. Balancing these factors is essential for legislators seeking to secure re-election while making decisions that affect the nation's healthcare system.
