Before submitting your Assessment, carefully review the rubric. This is the
same rubric the SME will use to evaluate your submission and it provides
detailed criteria describing how to achieve or master the Competency. Many
students find that understanding the requirements of the Assessment and the
rubric criteria help them direct their focus and use their time most productively.
To pass this Competency, you must achieve a minimum rubric score of
“Meets Expectations” (“Achieved”) or “Above Expectations” (“Mastered”). You
will have three attempts to successfully complete this Assessment. Each
attempt will count towards your total three attempts to achieve this
Competency.
Rubric
All submissions must follow the conventions of scholarly writing. Properly
formatted APA citations and references must be provided where appropriate.
Submissions that do not meet these expectations will be returned without
scoring.
This Assessment requires submission of two (2) files:
•
•
Save Part I as HE008_PartI_firstinitial_lastname (for example,
HE008_PartI_J_Smith).
Save Part II and III as HE008_PartII_III_firstinitial_lastname (for example,
HE008_PartII_III_J_Smith) .
When you are ready to upload your completed Assessment, use

each country
o Data on the rate of insured; the healthcare delivery mechanism
(public and private services, public and private funding sources, and
requirements for individuals to pay for insurance) physician density
o Methods for healthcare provision in remote and underserved areas
o Vaccination requirements; and similar indicators used to measure
health-system operations
o Explain how this system compares to the U.S. healthcare system
Explain the connection between global health issues and local healthcare
management, and which Millennium Development Goals and Healthy
People 2030 Goals apply to this scenario.
Explain how infectious diseases are identified and tracked, including an
explanation of how the hospital and local health department (LHD) worked
together to create the line list, and which locations in the community merit
further investigation.
Explain at least eight action steps to manage this potential health threat.
Describe the collaborative approach between the Massachusetts state and
local health department and the hospital to investigate and contain the
outbreak.
Describe at least three responsibilities of the Massachusetts state and
local health department in this specific outbreak scenario.

Part 2: Editorial: Medical Tourism
It has come to your attention that an international hospital aggressively
recruits brain cancer patients in your local area. Their innovative treatment is
approved in their country; however is considered experimental in your own
country. Many patients in the late stages of brain cancer travel to their location
as a last hope for a treatment that might stop the aggressive progression of
their otherwise terminal illness.
Write a persuasive letter to an editor in your local community making a case
for or against seeking this international medical care. Consider as many
options for domestic and international treatment as possible, including
traditional local treatment options as well as holistic or experimental
treatments abroad. Be sure your letter addresses both the local- and
destination-country’s perspective on this issue. (1–2 pages)
Part 3: Culturally Competent Response
Develop a half-page, culturally competent script for a phone call to reach out
to the contacts of infected persons that encourages them to get tested for
tuberculosis (TB). In addition, submit an appendix to your script that explains
which National Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Healthcare (CLAS)
Standards were applied and your rationale for selecting the cultural
demographic upon which your script is based.
CLAS Standards can be found here.
