Case 1
You have a small healthcare consulting business. Company named HealthNet Insutance plans to acquire a new Web-base scheduling system, and has hired you to evaluate bids from vendors. Your spouse is a Director for one of the bidders, Networkx. She oversaw most of the writing for the bid, you read the bid, and you think it is excellent. The bid is about $750,000
Will you tell about your spouse’s connection with Networksx?
How will you position yourself?
Will you recommend Networksx to HealthNet Insurance?
Case 2
Case #3. You are a member of a team working on a computer-controlled crash-avoidance system for medical records management. You think the system has a flaw that could endanger your patient’s privacy and, possibly, health.
The project manager does not seem concerned and is excited about announcing completion of the project soon. The department’s bonus depends on it, too.
Are you obligated to do anything?
For practical application, you are doing Discussion Board Assignment #2. For this assignment, each student selects any two cases from the seven small cases available in Module 12 and analyzes them by applying Human Resource policies and procedures four cases that can be found in the lecture: “HR Policies. Conflicts. Responsibilities and Accountability” on slides 4-5 (Conflict of Interest), slide 10 (Copying an Employee Files), slide 11 (Going Public), and slides 12-13 (I am just a Project Manager). As always, each student comments on two case analyses of his/her peers.
Hint: the cases are small but very interesting. As you do your analysis, please apply theoretical concepts and statements (it is tempting to apply common sense, but to receive a full grade for this assignment, you have to demonstrate mastery and application of the theoretical concepts. Use case details to support your reasoning and analysis
