The state health policy in America is the Patient protection and affordable healthcare policy which came into being as a result of the then president Barak Obama enacting a law to allow all employees to be contributors to a scheme which insures their health. It is famously known as the Obama care. The policy came into being in 2010 and saw all the employers enlist their workers into health insurance schemes. In this sense every American citizen are entitled to a health insurance cover which they contribute in part. The insurances policy utilized the tools like the cheat sheets the work plan the self-audit tool and the and lastly exchange function checklist tool to implement the policy (Hall & Lord 2014).
How do you think the political climate has affected the choice of policy tools and the behavioral assumptions by policymakers?
Yes! The political climate did affect the implementation of the policy by deflecting the choices of the tool used in the implementation of the policy. The policy makers opposed to the policy influenced the choice of the tools that would allow the government to be directly involved in the implementation of the plan and also caused the oppositions behave in the manner likely to suggest they were opposing the whole plan. Voting nearly pulled it down. The current president used the scheme as a campaign toll stating that it is making Americans poorer. Politics also burred the financial allocation for the program and influenced the structure of the plan in total (Tanenbaum 2016). How have professional nursing organizations been involved in this policy issue?The healthcare professional have been involved by being mandated to encourage the customers register in the plan and start contributing. They have been asked to advice the employees to ensure their employers enroll then and contribute towards the scheme.
Develop a few talking points to inform other health care professionals regarding this issue.The healthcare practitioners are mandated with the quality wellbeing of the citizens of the community and therefore need to be consulted in the policy formulation testing adjustment and implementation levels so that the ultimate goal of the policy is achieved amicably. They are in close contact with the patients and need to be involved in educating the customers on the importance of the health insurance cover and encourage them to be contributors and so benefactors of the policy.
