    1.    The Office of Inspector General (OIG) has established a set of guidelines (e.g., auditing, monitoring, internal controls, sampling, due diligence, and standards of organizational and employee behavior, that physician practices should follow when creating a compliance plan. State your opinion as to which OIG guideline would be the single most significant aspect of a compliance plan for a small practice. Provide a rationale for your response.
    2.    According the text, the fundamental purpose of a compliance plan is to create an organizational culture that promotes the prevention, identification, and resolution of issues associated with risk. Suggest two (2) main aspects of a management strategy necessary to create this type of culture. Support your recommendations with at least one (1) real-world example.
    3.    Use Internet to research articles (no older than five [5] years) on using technology to prevent medical malpractices. Next, discuss the overall manner in which using technology can help prevent malpractices. Speculate on the most damaging consequences of a malpractice case on a physician practice. Support your rationale.
    4.    Imagine that you are the manager of a multi-specialty medical practice that is opening a new office and that you are involved in planning the layout and design of the new office. Determine three (3) functional areas that you think should be given priority with regard to the amount of space needed for efficient operations and patient flow in the new office. Justify your response.
    5.    Assess the degree and quality of care established within the 18th Century US hospitals, as compared to the level of care seen in the 21st Century hospitals.

    6.    Determine whether the U.S. health care delivery spending per capita is detrimental to the quality of care provided in the 21st Century hospitals.  Provide specific examples to support your rationale from readings throughout your program or from peer-reviewed journal articles.
    7.    Discuss a life-threatening event or a natural disaster in your community, such as a severe weather event, terrorist attack, or other type of public health emergency (Pandemic). Examine an overall strategy that medical providers, health care organizations, and public health agencies should include in the response plan that combines the efforts of all groups.
