AMT2 Service Line Development Task 2 PASSED
SOLUTION- Western Governors University
“SUBDOMAIN 705.1 – HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH
Competency 705.1.1: Needs Assessment – The graduate designs, administers,
and evaluates a community health needs assessment.”
Introduction:
A community health assessment is a developmental process that is added to and
amended over time. In the “Service Line Development Case Study,” there is a
community health needs assessment that describes the state of local individuals’
health. This assessment allows the major risk factors.
Orthopedic Services
1. Demand – the need for orthopedic services in the primary service area is
expected to grow rapidly in the next five years – orthopedic cases are expected
to climb from 11,800 to 17,338 (+46%) – inpatient joint and spine procedures are
expected to increase by 30% - outpatient joint and spine procedures are
expected to increase by 350%.
2. Existing Resources – with current resources, physicians and hospitals will be
unable to meet the growing demand for orthopedic services.
, Cardiovascular Services
1. Demand – as with cancer and orthopedics, there will be a large increase in demand
for cardiovascular services in the primary service area in the next five years – cases of
coronary artery disease are expected to grow from 54,000 to 65,700 (+21.6%) –
diagnostic cath procedures are expected to increase from 10,800 to 13,140 (+22%) –
angioplasties are expected to grow from 4,000 to 5,023 (+25.8%)
2. Existing Resources – additional facilities, equipment, physicians, and other
resources will be needed to provide quality care for those impacted by cardiovascular
disease – cardiology and cardiovascular surgery groups are recruiting additional
physicians, state planning data confirms the need all hospitals in the country will need
additional cath labs, surgical suits, and cardiac rehab capacity – patient care
coordinators will be needed to facilitate timely scheduling of services – little emphasis
is being placed on education concerning cardiac risk factors, healthy living, and
lifestyle modification
Oncology Services
1. Demand – an aging population will create a sharp increase in the demand for
oncology services in the primary service area – 15% of the population will be over
65 within the next 5 years – 50% of men and 33% of women are expected to
develop cancer during their lifetimes – new cancer cases are expected to grow
from 3,200 this year to 4,282 in five years (+34%)
