will best address your issue). The purpose of this letter is to advocate for action with regards to your chosen health
care environment issue.IntroductionNote: Each assessment in this course builds upon the work you have completed in previous assessments. Therefore,
you must complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.As health care leaders, it is important to understand strategies for advocating and lobbying elected officials. This
can lead to the development of policies or laws that can help drive improved equity and outcomes for all
participants in the health care environment as well as a more sustainable financial future.Background and ContextAs a master’s-level health care practitioner, you may be expected to implement plans to ensure that initiatives
designed to take advantage of economic opportunities for the organization are rolled out successfully and can be
sustained over multiple years. Additionally, it is important to be able to envision how an initiative could be
implemented in different contexts and for different purposes to ensure the investment remains a viable and positive
asset to your organization or care setting.As a master’s-level practitioner, you will often be challenged to influence the health care environment in a variety of
ways. This influence can occur on a micro-level (implementing change on your unit, institution, community, or local
organizations) or at a macro level (implementing change via state or federal regulations and policy). One way you
can influence the health care environment is by lobbying an elected official at the local, state, or national level to
adopt policies or legislation that would support positive economic and health outcomes for patients, practitioners,
and organizations within the health care environment.InstructionsFor this assessment, you will develop a letter to an official in your state or local government (choose the individual in
the level of government that will best address your issue). The purpose of this letter is to advocate for action with
regards to your chosen health care environment issue. Remember, when writing the letter, you must use your
personal address and telephone number unless you are exclusively representing a group or your organization.Be sure to address each main point. Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide, including performance-
level descriptions for each criterion, to ensure you understand the work you will be asked to complete and how it
will be assessed. In addition, note the requirements for document format and length and for supporting evidence.Overall, your assessment submission will be assessed on the following criteria:Course Navigation 

will best address your issue). The purpose of this letter is to advocate for action with regards to your chosen health
care environment issue.IntroductionNote: Each assessment in this course builds upon the work you have completed in previous assessments. Therefore,
you must complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.As health care leaders, it is important to understand strategies for advocating and lobbying elected officials. This
can lead to the development of policies or laws that can help drive improved equity and outcomes for all
participants in the health care environment as well as a more sustainable financial future.Background and ContextAs a master’s-level health care practitioner, you may be expected to implement plans to ensure that initiatives
designed to take advantage of economic opportunities for the organization are rolled out successfully and can be
sustained over multiple years. Additionally, it is important to be able to envision how an initiative could be
implemented in different contexts and for different purposes to ensure the investment remains a viable and positive
asset to your organization or care setting.As a master’s-level practitioner, you will often be challenged to influence the health care environment in a variety of
ways. This influence can occur on a micro-level (implementing change on your unit, institution, community, or local
organizations) or at a macro level (implementing change via state or federal regulations and policy). One way you
can influence the health care environment is by lobbying an elected official at the local, state, or national level to
adopt policies or legislation that would support positive economic and health outcomes for patients, practitioners,
and organizations within the health care environment.InstructionsFor this assessment, you will develop a letter to an official in your state or local government (choose the individual in
the level of government that will best address your issue). The purpose of this letter is to advocate for action with
regards to your chosen health care environment issue. Remember, when writing the letter, you must use your
personal address and telephone number unless you are exclusively representing a group or your organization.Be sure to address each main point. Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide, including performance-
level descriptions for each criterion, to ensure you understand the work you will be asked to complete and how it
will be assessed. In addition, note the requirements for document format and length and for supporting evidence.Overall, your assessment submission will be assessed on the following criteria:Course Navigation 

occur if the issue is not addressed.Tailor this messaging to focus on the impacts in the communities and organizations that are relevant to
the elected official you are writing to.Summarize key information from scholarly sources to support the importance of addressing the issue; the
issue’s overall impact on health care at the institutional, local, state, or national level; and proposed changes
or actions to address the issue.Cite at least five current, scholarly sources that support your argument and help provide the elected
official (who may not have a detailed knowledge of the health care environment) with an understanding
of the issues, changes, or actions that you are proposing to drive improved outcomes.
Identify the impact your issue has on health care institutions and health care providers at the local
community, state, or national level.
Make sure to include information from both a health care and an economic perspective. An elected
official may be more responsive to one perspective than another.
Incorporate social justice, structural racism, and inequity principles when picking resources and making
recommendations for change in your assessment.Explain how personal, professional, and organizational experiences have informed the resource planning and
risk analysis for working toward addressing the economic issue.Think about how your experiences (the experiences can be personal, professional, or from your team’s
perspective or experience) affect how you have planned for the resources needed to implement your
desired changes or actions. How did this impact your approach to conducting a risk analysis on the
project?Convey purpose, in an appropriate tone and style, incorporating supporting evidence and adhering to
organizational, professional, and scholarly communication standards.Remember to conclude your letter with a summary of your position on the issue and a compelling
reason that the elected official should act in your favor and support your issue or initiative.Additional RequirementsAudience: Make sure you are addressing your letter to an actual local or state official.
