The topic/Health policy problem will be Obesity in the United States.

One healthy policy recommendation that should be included: Insurance companies should be required by law to cover obesity medications and have them listed on their formularies. Currently insurance companies are not required to cover obesity medications therefore most do not.
Please add 1-2 other policy recommendations as well.

2. Explanation of the importance of the policy problem to healthcare.
3. Stakeholders who are positively or negatively impacted by the policy problem are identified and briefly discussed.

Problem Based Learning Exercise PBLE Model

Problem Based Learning Exercise PBLE Model

The ability to work through complex problems is one of the essential traits of an effective leader. Too often, the focus of a leader’s decision is on the outcome, not the process. Developing the problem solving through process is what will lead to the desired outcomes. Throughout this class, we will be developing our leadership skills through problem based learning exercises. There are various formats of varying complexity. I have found simplicity works best. This format will help you develop a process for problem solving that you can apply to any part of your life, not just in the criminal justice field.

This week we will be using a three-point version consisting of known facts, learning issues, and action plan. The sub-points may or may not apply on each exercise. You may find additional sub-points for working through your problems. You may write these in narrative paragraph form or in bullet points.

These problems are not easy to solve. Most problems in real life are impossible to permanently solve. Solving the problem is not necessarily an expected outcome. Our role is to mitigate the problem and to lead our people.
