BHA4104 Strategic Analysis and Operational Considerations
Preparation
This assignment is based around the Vila Health: Strategic Analysis and Operational
Considerations media simulation. Be sure you have completed this activity before
completing this assignment.
You may also find it useful to research on strategic planning, Porter’s five forces model,
environmental scanning, and strategic frameworks beyond the resources provided.
Instructions
In addition to the scenario presented in the Vila Health: Strategic Analysis and
Operational, incorporate the following change in the organization’s environment when
creating your analysis for this assignment:
•
A new for-profit 50-bed acute care hospital is slated to open in the next eight
months, offering a full complement of services.
The goal of this assignment is to create a succinct and thorough analysis of the internal
and external environment for St. Anthony Medical Center. This report should help
stakeholders understand the importance of understanding the environment in which the
organization operates. Additionally, it should clearly lay out an analysis of the internal
and external environments and apply one or more strategic frameworks to analyze the
environment and raise operational considerations.
This assignment has two distinct parts:
•
•
Part 1: Understanding the Environment.
Part 2: Organizational Analysis.
When completing your assignment, read the instructions carefully to make sure you are
addressing all the scoring guide criteria.
Part 1: Understanding the Environment
Relevant Scoring Guide Criteria:
•
Analyze the impact and importance of understanding competition within the
health industry as it applies to strategic planning.
•
•
Demonstrate effective communication through writing and proper use of APA
style.
Communicate in a professional and effective manner, writing content clearly
and logically, with the correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
For this part of your assignment, the focus should be on providing a brief analysis of the
ways in which competition within the health care industry affects strategic planning and
should be incorporated into strategic planning. As a part of your analysis, you should
consider the types of evidence and analysis that would be compelling to the
stakeholders at St. Anthony Medical Center to ensure that they are onboard and
understand the importance at considering the competition in the environment when
undertaking strategic planning. This relates to both internal and external factors.
As you create this part of your assignment, it may be helpful to think about these
following areas and aspects of an organization that compete for time, attention, and
resources:
•
•
•
•
External competition.
Staffing.
Stakeholders.
Organizational Capacity.
Part 2: Organizational Analysis
Relevant Scoring Guide Criteria:
•
•
•
•
•
Analyze the internal, general, and external environment within which an
organization operates.
Examine strategic frameworks of health care organizations.
Discuss implications for the organization’s future if strategic frameworks are
not utilized.
Demonstrate effective communication through writing and proper use of APA
style.
Communicate in a professional and effective manner, writing content clearly
and logically, with the correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
For the second part of your assignment, you will present an environmental analysis for
the organization. Additionally, you will discuss one or more strategic frameworks (for
example, a SWOT analysis) and apply it to the scenario presented in the media
simulation. Finally, you will create a compelling argument as to the need for utilizing a
strategic framework and the potential implications for the organization’s future if
nothing is employed.
It may be useful to apply Porter’s Five Forces of Competitive Position Analysis when
conducting and communicating your analysis.

BHA4106 Benchmarks and Quality Measures
Instructions
Step One: Preparation
Locate data related to quality measures relevant to your topic from one or more of these
websites:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Agency for Healthcare Research and QualityLinks to an external site.. (n.d.).
https://www.ahrq.gov
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Links to an external site.. (n.d.).
http://www.cdc.gov
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). CMS data navigatorLinks to an
external site.. https://data.cms.gov/
The Joint CommissionLinks to an external site.. (n.d.).
https://www.jointcommission.org/
National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA)Links to an external site.. (2019).

Health Care Accreditation, Health Plan Accreditation Organization – NCQA

Occupational Safety and Health AdministrationLinks to an external site.. (n.d.).
http://www.osha.gov/index.html
Any other site that contains national or state health care quality measures.
Step Two: Data Collection
Using the Data Collection Spreadsheet Guide [XLSX] Download Data Collection
Spreadsheet Guide [XLSX]as an example, create a spreadsheet containing three tabs:
Dashboard Tracking, Data Collection, and Trending.
On the first tab, Dashboard Tracking, draw from the information you gathered in Step
One as part of your preparation for this assessment:
•
•
•
Identify the specific benchmark data you will compare with your office data.
Remember it is up to you to establish your benchmarks.
Organize or create a spreadsheet to display the totals, percentages, averages, and so
on of your office data and of the national or state data you will be using for
comparison. Note: Your Office Data column will be blank because you are not
collecting any office data. This is only a proposal to do an information review of the
quality of care provided by the physician group. Data does, however, need to appear
in the Benchmark (national/state) data column.
Include at least one comparison graph of your choice on this tab.
On the second tab, Data Collection, draw from the information you gathered in Step
One as part of your preparation for this assessment:
•
•
•
Create a form you will use to collect specific data from the patients’ records.
Include a row for each patient.
Provide a column for each data collection point (quality measure) you will be
comparing.
Note: The information on this page is totaled, averaged, et cetera, with the results linked
to the first tab.
To create your third tab, Trends, you will need to do some additional research. Identify
national benchmarks for the condition you have chosen that could be compared to your
office data. For example, if the trend in your office is that you are seeing more patients
with asthma, but the national trend is decreasing, you have discovered a discrepancy
that needs to be investigated.
To perform your analysis:
•
•
Visit one or more of the following websites containing national data:
o Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. (n.d.). HCUPnet: Healthcare
cost and utilization projectLinks to an external site..
https://hcupnet.ahrq.gov/#setup
o Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (n.d.). CDC wonderLinks to an
external site.. https://wonder.cdc.gov/WelcomeT.html
o Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). CMS data navigatorLinks
to an external site.. https://data.cms.gov/
o Any other site that contains national or state health care data.
Locate and analyze statistical data relevant to the selected condition.
Examine trends:
▪ What other meaningful trends exist? For example, consider the
number of new cases, increases or decreases of cases within a
specific age range or location, et cetera.
▪ How do the national and state trends compare?
▪ Is the national trend increasing or decreasing?
▪ What is the percentage of cases who expire from the disease?
Identify the trending of one statistical result relating to the condition you selected
over the last 5–10 years.
Create a line graph on the third tab of your spreadsheet, Trends, that illustrates the
national and/or state trending of the disease you selected over the past 5–10 years.
o
•
•
Note: Remember you have not collected your office data yet for comparison purposes.
You could add that data at a later time.
Step 3: Data Compatibility
Write a short section to add to the proposal you will complete in Assessment 3. Be sure
this section of your proposal includes all of the following headings and your narrative
addresses each of the bullet points.
Introduction
•
Provide a brief 1–2 sentence high-level summary explaining data
compatibility.
Data Compatibility
•
Assess the compatibility of the data:
o How can you ensure data from multiple sources is compatible?
o How do you know the data you are using for comparison is compatible
with your office data?
o What challenges are associated with data standardization? We do not
want to compare apples with oranges. You want to be sure data from
multiple sources:
▪ Represents the same condition.
▪ Uses similar statistical analysis.
▪ And so on.
Effects of Health Information Quality on the HIE
•
•
•
•
Explain the difference between an HIE and a national database.
Explain what problems can develop if facilities submit incomplete or inaccurate
information to an HIE.
Explain what problems can develop if facilities submit incomplete or inaccurate
information to a national database.
Explain how incomplete or inaccurate data may affect your proposal.
Conclusion
•
Briefly reinforce your paper’s main points.
Additional Requirements
Your assessment should meet the following requirements:
•
•

BHA4108 Analysis of Data and Policies
Overview
When developing a Community Health Assessment and Plan (CHAP), it’s important to be
aware of a variety of policies at the local, state, and federal levels. These can influence
the type of data you may collect or use, the interventions you may choose, and how they
may be implemented. By examining these relationships between your chosen priorities
and public health policy, you will gain insights into how demographic, socioeconomic,
and many other community factors must be taken into consideration when developing
an effective and implementable CHAP.
For this assignment, you will analyze existing health policies that directly impact the
community you profiled in the previous assignment, identifying their strengths,
weaknesses, and areas for improvement. You should consider each policy’s effectiveness
in addressing health equity, accessibility, and affordability of healthcare services. This
assignment will deepen your understanding of the role policy plays in shaping
community health outcomes, and completing this policy analysis will help you formulate
how you will write your CHAP report for publication in the next assignment.
Preparation
Before you begin the assignment:
•
•
•
•
Review the top five community population health priorities that you identified
in your previous assignment.
o From the top five priorities, identify the top three. These are the
priorities you will focus on going forward. Consider the factors that
have made these the three top health priorities needed in the
community you’re assessing.
