Utilizing the references given to you for this assignment, you will pick one national comparison: U.S. vs. one other country.
Your case study should include specific data points (whether in written, table or pictorial format). Research peer-reviewed scholarly articles on healthcare policy and management for the data you have chosen to write about. Compare and contrast the U.S. healthcare policy and management against that of the other nation, to try to explain why such differences may exist. Your paper should be no more than 4 pages (not including title or references). Therefore, this is not exhaustive research paper — but, a high-level look at healthcare policy and management (do not go down any rabbit-holes, or get stuck in the weeds; think 10,000 foot view). This is to get you used to looking at healthcare policy and management from a macro level as well as a global one. Do not forget to include your references at the end of the case analysis.
