Health Policy Developer - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Issue established: molecular COVID-19 tests needed by travellers are too expensive through private stream. The public demands that this should be covered by the government under Medicare.
        
        Policy developer looks into the issue by researching the prices of the tests, how many travellers have taken them and how many travellers must take them as borders reopen and travel increases during the pandemic. More research into whether the government can pay for the tests. How much revenue the private industry is making. Determine whether a policy change is necessary.
        
        Scientists, health and policy experts, academics, medical professionals, business consultants are used to find viable information and data on this research stage.
        
        Enough data is collected by the policy developer and team to establish that a policy change is needed
        
        Policy change proposal established to publicly fund molecular COVID-19 tests under Medicare
        
        Policy team helps with research of different streams
        
        Policy change is established. Now time for risk assessment: policy developer and team predict risks of policy proposal being rejected at the approval stage.
        
        If the provincial governments cannot find funding in their healthcare budgets to fully pay for citizens’ molecular COVID-19 tests, then the government leaders will reject the policy change to publicly fund the tests under Medicare
        
        If the private health and safety industries do not wish to lose monopoly business over the profits generated by molecular COVID-19 tests, then they will reject the policy change to publicly fund the tests under Medicare at the policy approval stage.
        
        If the policy change proposal for publicly funding molecular COVID-19 tests is rejected at the policy approval stage, then the public will not be able to afford the high prices for the privately-run tests and opt to committing fraudulent crimes of faking molecular test certificates and/or be harmed at personal values by being unable to travel [for essential needs and/or needs such as taking care of family members affected by the pandemic].
        
        Policy developer leads policy development team to research alternate solution strategies that will create a hybrid or combined option to ensure that all parties at the policy approval board level are satisfied and approve the policy to pass
        
        team will research global neighbours, both with private and public healthcare systems i.e., USA, UK, Netherlands, and previous policy change agendas to get ideas of solutions and combine multiple streams to formulate one custom solution that will work in favour of ht greater good of the public, the board, the politicians, the private agencies, the public health, the government
        
        come up with a solution to combine both private agencies delevering the services and the government partially covering the charge under Medicare
        
        private agency will retain profit from partial business
        
        the government will not have to cover for complete cost fo the tests, thus can find funding to cover partial cost
        
        the citizens will now have to pay partial cost of the tests instead of full price
        
        work with insurance policy developers to include the partial private costs of the tests to be deductible through work and personal insurance agencies to allow for further discounts to citizens
        
        get the final policy change proposal with solution strategies to the issues on the policy agenda for approval
