1. This is the first part of your 3-part integrative paper assignment that you will write throughout this course, and it provides you with the opportunity to research an area of health policy of interest to you; discuss the background; and develop a problem statement, purpose statement, and research questions intended to explore the problem. These are all scholarly writing skills you need to continue to develop and practice to address these topics in your dissertation. 

    

   Review the Integrative Paper Guidelines to prepare you for this set of 3 assignments during this course.

    

   Write a 1,250- to 1,750-word paper in which you:

   • Describe the health policy you selected in your Wk 1 – Student Task: Health Policy Topic Approval learning activity, including its intentions, goal, plans, solutions, and programs. Be sure to explain how the policy, legislation, regulations, and role of each differ in the governance of the health care system.
   • Describe the background of the health policy, including its origination, history, evolution, and effects on stakeholders in the health care system.
   • Develop a problem statement that describes a dilemma or issue within the chosen policy that needs research.
   • Create a purpose statement that describes the purpose of the proposed research study, the problem it addresses, the study’s setting, and the audience you are targeting with the results.
   • Examine or explore the research problem by posing 3 research questions that will be the focus of the study. These research questions should fully encompass the purpose of the study, but they should not go beyond the scope of the problem.
   • Define 6 to 10 terms used in the paper that are important elements of the policy, important elements of the problem, important elements of the research questions, or part of the health care lexicon that people unfamiliar with your topic may not understand. Cite and reference each of those terms.

    

   Cite at least 5 scholarly sources.

    

   Format your paper according to APA guidelines.

    

   Submit your assignment.
