Discussion Post: Stakeholders
First, respond to these initial questions:
1) Who are the typical stakeholders of a mental health services agency?
a) Describe in detail what their major interests are.
2) How might the interests of each of these stakeholders be in conflict?
3) Where do your positions on confidentiality fit in?
Then, thinking of these initial questions, find a news article online, published within the last five years, and covering a story from the United States that relates to the issues of healthcare compliance, where it appears that stakeholder interests are in conflict. Make sure it covers a topic or topics in which you have personal interest. Copy and paste the link into your journal submission, and respond to the following questions:
1) Summarize what the news article covered in relation to healthcare or mental healthcare compliance.
a) Who are the stakeholders as described in the article?
b) What conflict among stakeholders' interests seems to be occurring?
c) What does the article say about compliance (if it, in fact, goes into any detail about this topic)?
2) Why did this particular article interest you?
The response should include a reference list. One-inch margins, Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
