January 28th, 2021 English and Literature, MLA Comments Off on Literacy Assignment

Literacy Assignment

Instructions   

After reading the three web articles listed in the readings for this week, compose a short essay (using a Word doc that you will upload, adhering to MLA formatting guidelines, writing no less than 350 words) that addresses the following:

1. What is resistance to you? What does it mean to resist something? Can reading really count as resistance, according to you?

2. Combined, these articles argue that reading is both absolutely essential in our world today as well as counting as an act of political defiance. Imagine you’re attempting to convince a friend or a peer of these authors’ arguments. What would you tell them to convince them to read and to read as an act of resistance? You can write this in the voice you would use for your pee.

January 28th, 2021 APA (edition "APA 7"), Law Comments Off on Systemic racism/George Floyd case

Systemic racism/George Floyd case

Find an example of a high-profile incident in which the actions and/or decisions of one or more individuals in the public safety field left citizens questioning the ethics of the action/decision and write a case study about that incident.

Your study should address at least the following:
Who were the stakeholders potentially impacted by the actions/decisions?
What arguments might those involved have made that their actions were ethical
Be sure to consider various ethical frameworks when considering this question–for example:
From a utilitarian perspective, he or she might have argued that…
From a deontological perspective, he or she might argue…
Considering virtue ethics, he or she might argue…
Explain why the actions made were or were not ethical.  Be sure to explain the academic definition you’re using as a baseline for this part of the discussion
How different actions by public safety administrators may have shaped the outcome of the incident or the perception of the public concerning either the ethics of the decision and/or the appropriateness of the organization’s reaction to it. For example (not all-inclusive), might better hiring standards or increased ethical training has impacted the situation–might more swift action to support or condemn the individual(s) had a positive impact on the public’s perception of the individual(s) or organization. 
The body of the Case Study shall be 8-10 pages, excluding other material such as the cover page, abstract, table of contents, graphics and tables, and references.

The Case Study Paper shall contain:

The five most important Federal fraud and abuse laws that apply to physicians are the False Claims Act (FCA), the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), the Physician Self-Referral Law (Stark law), the Exclusion Authorities, and the Civil Monetary Penalties Law (CMPL). Government agencies, including the Department of Justice, the Department of Health & Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG), and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), are charged with enforcing these laws. As you begin your career, it is crucial to understand these laws not only because following them is the right thing to do, but also because violating them could result in criminal penalties, civil fines, exclusion from the Federal health care programs, or loss of your medical license from your state medical board (OIG HHS website, n.d.).

Review the four most important Federal fraud and abuse laws on the OIG website (Links to an external site.).
Find a Press Release on the United States Department of Justice website (Links to an external site.) related to one of the five Federal fraud and abuse cases.
You will provide a summary of your chosen Press Release and the Federal fraud and abuse law that was violated
