Design Science approach to Healthcare
Submitted by andiberkley on Wed, 12/02/2009 - 16:13
Comprehensiveness — This seems to be the current approach that the Obama Administration is taking to health care by attempting to include medical insurance for every individual in the United States. This seems to be the comprehensive side of this strategy. Leaving people out would be antagonistic to the comprehensiveness of this strategy.
Anticipatory — The need of healthcare reform is apparent by studying what will happen if nothing does change (ex: bankrupt America). Needs driven by providing healthcare to those who currently are in dire need and have no access to quality care. The budget side of the debate, the possibility of allowing hsa coverage, is future oriented.
Aligned with nature — The new healthcare plan includes measures that are environmentally friendly. The way that hospital communication systems can be upgraded (ie - paperless) aligns this solution with nature. This will provide the cleanest individual health insurance for the person in need.
