Exam Content
Scenario
Imagine you have been hired as a new health care manager for a local health care system. You have been asked to develop a presentation for your board about consumers and their health care choices. In completing this presentation, you will demonstrate skill in regulatory environment application as you analyze the impact of government regulations on the health care consumer and consider how the organization can respond to the changing environment. You will also analyze how health care organizations and consumers share information.

Choose 1 of the following companies or products to use in your presentation:
Health spa launching a new medically supervised weight-loss treatment
Insurance company launching a new medical product for the health insurance exchange
Hospital system launching a new diabetes-maintenance program
Medical device manufacturer launching a new metal alloy prosthesis
