Researchers Pia et al. (2015) revealed some of the common characteristics relating to the health care organizations such as those allowing the generation and synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms of alternative methods to prevent, diagnose, treat, and monitor a clinical condition or to improve the delivery of care.
In addition, according to Pia et al. (2015) health care system constitutes all organizations, people and actions whose primary intent is to promote, restore or maintain the health of communities. Moreover, Pia et al. (2015) reported some common characteristics all health care organizations of related to service delivery with the following analysis, The Commonwealth Fund Commission report15 has described the characteristics of high-performing systems, which include access to information, active management, interdependent accountability, patient access to care, and continuous innovation.
Furthermore, research findings on characteristics of health care systems have revealed that all health care providers and constituencies should be aware of the transformative potential of more integrated and comprehensive approaches that preserve or improve quality of care (Bekker et al., 2018).
Finally, according to Molyneux et al. (2011), health care providers should have common macro-priorities and intervention strategies in order to promote health in the world. In summary, based on the scholarly information above, I support the idea that access to information, active management, and interdependent accountability, patient access to care and continuous innovation are the key components for all health care organizations. These features are important because they may allow health care providers to consistently learn, adapt their diagnosis and treatments regarding rising circumstances such as environmental changes, diseases or pandemics.
In short, patient-centered, collaboration, accountability, adaptability, financial management, and respect are important characteristics in all health care organizations that aim to promote the health of communities or countries.

Health care organizations are classified by service delivery, financing, payment solutions, and insurance relations to attract and maintain patients, clients, and/or consumers. All of the aforementioned classification systems are important to health care organizations requiring strategic planning and effective leadership who is hard working, provides accurate data analysis, and has the ability to make tough and informed decisions (Kaufman, 2018). Effective leaders will report on key performance measures allowing management to make informed decisions rather than misguided decisions.
Health care organizations providing affordable care and quality service delivery to patients become the provider of choice for the largest variety of patients. Kaufman (2018) suggests that organizations can only become sustainable if leaders evaluate their cost structures and re-examine their strategies and operations including access to services and timeliness of wait times to see providers. Effective leaders strategize ways to improve services to patients resulting in patient retention, and increasing organizational sustainability.

For this assignment, you will attempt to justify the market value of a publicly-traded organization by investigating the asset value of the company. Use the models above (theoretical market value and the current market value model) to obtain an estimated value of the organizations assets. You have been requested by the public company you choose to prepare a comprehensive report that fairly evaluates the companys current market valuation for its stakeholders (i.e., the value the company would realize if sold to a new set of investors). (Note that in a public company, the shares are sold on a Securities Exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange. However, when a company is sold, the transaction is an agreement that the value of the assets is fair for both parties and is not the capitalized value of the shares on the exchange.) Be sure to carefully follow all of the instructions in each part:
- Choose a publicly-traded company that you want to analyze (different from the choice for assignments 3 and 4). It is recommended that you choose a company from an industry about which you have an interest. One way to find an annual report for a company is to search on . Reports are grouped by industries, public market exchanges on which listed and other filters. Read the companys most recent annual report. Write about three paragraphs describing the company. Discuss the companys line of business, products and/or services offered, time the company has been in operation, and main location. Discuss any other aspects of the company that you believe are particularly interesting about the company.
- Assess the company from a microeconomic point of view. Discuss the demand characteristics for the companys product or service (e.g., the companys customers, competition, etc.), the companys cost structure (e.g., degree of variable cost versus fixed costs), and the nature of the industry (highly competitive, somewhat competitive, oligopoly, or monopoly). Discuss any other microeconomic factors that you believe are relevant to the company.
- Consider the strategy for new products or services that are described in the companys annual report. Are there any aspects of the current strategy that you perceive will positively or negatively affect the companys growth (assume the strategy presented is likely achievable). Determine if the proposed strategy will alter the past growth rate of earnings as trending in past years reported.
- Create a pro forma income statement for the company in order to estimate net income for the next annual accounting period (you only have to create a proforma income statement, not a proforma balance sheet). Using the net income calculated for next year, calculate the cash flow for next year (cash flow = net income + depreciation).
- Use the CAPM (capital asset pricing model) and/or the Dividend-Growth Model (dividend per share/ stock price per share *100) + estimated growth per year of earnings (from annual report and/or from a five year estimate from an Independent Investment Research House, which is located in University Library), calculate the perceived cost of equity for the company. Evaluate the reasonableness for the growth rate of equity you develop based on the calculations and the evaluations accomplished in Parts 2 and 3 above.
- Estimate the value of the assets using both the theoretical market value model and the current market value model described above. Evaluate the differences between the two. As the chief financial officer, evaluate which of the values you have calculated more fairly estimates the true market value of the organization proposed for sale to a new set of investors.
- Based on your comprehensive evaluation of your chosen company, would you want to be the CFO of this company or not? Provide reasons for why you would or why you would not. (Note: Although you must include Part VII in what you submit for this assignment, this item will not be included in the final comprehensive report that will be given to the company.)
Length: 12 pages, not including title page and references
References: Include a minimum of 5 scholarly resources.
