Discussion on Common Client Payor Systems and Funding Sources; Continuum of Care

Instructions
After you have completed your assigned readings and reviewed the lecture content, respond to all of the discussion board questions. Take into consideration the requirements as you create your response.

For this week’s discussion, please respond to the following case.

You are a clinician in an OASAS Licensed Program. Richard Ortegada (Ricky) has seen you for 5 individual sessions of treatment for his opioid use disorder (in early remission). He is a very charming , persuasive and likable 32 year old Puerto Rican American male. He is married with 3 pre-school children and has a good union job providing heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) services to the Marriott hotel chain in the NYC Burroughs. Despite wearing steel toe boots, he managed to break 3 toes on his left foot last year and was out of work for 4 months debt has piled up. He was over prescribed an opioid medication and became dependent. He began buying pills from a coworker before he went back to work, so that he could go back to work (every step still hurts) and start getting full paychecks to support his family again (workers comp was only paying two-thirds of his salary).

Recently Ricky was arrested for possession of opioid Rx pain pills. He is on pre-trial probation for felony possession of a controlled substance and is due back in court next month; you have a signed consent form to communicate with his probation officer (who you know well from previous shared cases you have a trusting relationship). If he violates his probation or gets convicted he will lose his job. Ricky is required to maintain participation in treatment as part of his probation deal, otherwise they would hold him in jail until his next court date. I cant break my kids hearts I am not my Dad. He reports that he forgot to fill out the continuing case report for workers comp and “it has raised hell with everything”, including his insurance coverage which is temporarily cancelled, but starts again in 10 days he shows you the paper. He knows you need to get paid for visits at the agency and figures it would be ok if he sees you this week, like he has to, but you just date the visit for next week so he doesnt blow his probation and lose his job. Or maybe he could just skip the visit but you can still tell probation that he is in compliance with pre-trial weekly counseling anyway because he will be good to go next week. His wife is being seen at the clinic as well and maybe you could bill this as a family session for a couple of weeks.

Consider the examples of leadership you have read about in this module, from the prominent public and nationwide leadership of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Abraham Lincoln to the challenges of personal leadership experienced by Robert in Carver’s “Cathedral” or Lt. Jimmy Cross in O’Brien’s “The Things They Carried.”

Now imagine you’ve been asked to host a leadership workshop for your workplace, division, or community group.  How would you use the examples of leadership shown in this chapter to teach your audience or to illustrate key points of your presentation?  What other examples–whether modern or historical, real or imagined–would you use?  How would those examples further emphasize what you teach your audience?

Review the Strategy Questions for Organizing Your Argument Essay in the “Creating an Informal Outline” section of Chapter 4, and then write a  response to the prompt above.  Be sure to incorporate our Core Value of Integrity in your analysis of leadership–how do those concepts relate?

God

Book: The Consolation of Philosophy (Penguin Classics)
ISBN-13: 978-0140447804

Thesis: Boethius believes that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and good.  But if his view is correct, then why do bad things exist at all?  Why is there evil in the world?

Remember to organize your points around a specific thesis, which you defend with reasons and evidence, and to strive for clarity and concision.  The ideal essay contains nothing irrelevant, and it should be more than a mere summary of the material.  Recall that to be interesting, you need to try to prove something.

Secondary readings are certainly allowed in researching your topic, but they are not required. What matters most is a clear, sound argument. If you seek philosophical background, a number of valuable articles on philosophical topics can also be found online in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy and in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
