In what way does the public health department work with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in providing information on local outbreaks and receiving information from the CDC on possible concerns for their geographic regions?

Answer: The CDC works with partners at the local, state and national level to monitor and prevent disease outbreaks (including bioterrorism), implement disease prevention strategies, and maintain national health statistics. The agency also leads public health efforts to prevent and control infectious and chronic diseases, injuries, workplace hazards, disabilities and environmental health threats (Lurie, Wesserman, Stoto & Myers, 2004). A good example would be the whopping cough and measles outbreak in WA a couple of years ago. The CDC assisted with disease surveillance, which helped create a preparedness and containment strategy for healthcare organizations around the state.

Discuss your thoughts about the role of disease registries in supporting population health and future public health initiatives.

Answer: A registry is a list of patients and their relevant clinical data that can be sorted by a condition or set of conditions in order to improve and monitor the care of the population. Healthcare organizations that have a well-organized disease registry are more prepared when it comes to controlling future outbreaks since they have data they can look at and create strategies from.

The purchase of the CD’s raw materials should be recorded as the cost of goods sold on the income statement. Because of this starting and ending inventory of CD’s raw materials should be adjusted to properly calculate the cost of goods sold.

The employee should report this to the CFO by explaining to him that the raw materials should be reported in the cost of goods sold and not as supplies and expenses in an attempt for the company to increase expenses and decrease tax liability which would be unethical and should not be carried out by the employee.

The inventory that was purchased would be a cost of good manufactured and be added to the beginning blanace of finished good inventory. Any ending finished goods would be deducted giving the cost of goods sold. The company will have an increase in costs of goods sold for the year end numbers due to the excess inventory. It would not be ethical to consider adding the inventory to supplies expense as it does not belong there and you’d be performing the transaction to take a tax cut. If the company is certain of the expected growth for next year, they will be able to bounce back from the previous year.
