What scriptural principles helped guide your conversation?

Financial Plan assignment: FOLLOW these instructions

Because finances are essential for life, they also impact relationships and can be a source of conflict or disagreements. This is an opportunity to put into practice some of the relationship principles you have been learning. 

1. Review scripture for financial principles and examples of financial planning, stewardship, and financial responsibility.

2. Meet with your spouse or significant other to together develop some short-term (next 1-5 years) and long-term (20 years and beyond) goals. Please come up with 3 short-term and 3 long-term. Make sure your goals are measurable and specific.  The goal of “We want to be financially content” is difficult to measure.

3. Write a one-page reflection on the process. We want to know how the process of talking about this with your spouse/significant other went. Where did you find yourself practicing active listening? Were there points of disagreement, and how did you work through them? Did you use the principles for having a difficult conversation? What Magic Phrases did you use? What scriptural principles helped guide your conversation?

What specific steps will you engage in to make sure that you are up to date as a computer professional?

Instructions:  There are three (3) topic areas listed below that are designed to measure your knowledge level specific to your understanding and ability to analyze the professional, ethical, legal, security and social issues in the global field of computing.  You  must  respond to  all three  questions  by providing appropriate responses in essay form.  The references for this assignment must be newer (less than 2 years old) than for the other assignments.   In most cases the topic area has several components. Each must be addressed to properly satisfy  requirements.

State-wide and in most professional industries, there has been a mandate that college students be more proficient in their writing.  While this is not a writing class, all writing assignments will be graded for grammar, syntax and typographical correctness to help address this mandate.

Pay attention to what you are being asked to do (see Grading Rubric below). For example, to describe  does not mean to list, but to tell about or illustrate in more than two or three sentences, providing appropriate arguments for your responses  using theories discussed in our text .   Be sure to address all parts of the topic question as most have multiple parts.   A verifiable current event  ( less than 2 years old)  relevant to  each  of the topics is a fundamental component of your quiz as well. You must have at least one reference for  each  topic and you cannot use the same reference to satisfy this requirement.  You cannot use information from the text book or any book/article by the author of the text book as a current event.  Make sure that your reference has a date of publication.  References with no date (n.d.) are not acceptable.  Each question requires a reference citation in the text of your answer and a reference at the end of the question to which the reference applies.  You must include some information obtained from the reference in your answer.  The references must be found on the internet and you must include a URL in your reference so that the reference can be verified. 

You should type your responses directly under the appropriate question.  Be sure to include your name on the quiz.  Include  your name in the document filename. Your completed quiz must be  placed in the appropriate eCollege Dropbox, no later than 11:59pm on the due date.   Do well.

1. ( a) Describe and give examples of the  2 most significant computer security threats that are impacting the world at the present time.  ( b) What steps are being taken to minimize or thwart these threats?  (c) Will the efforts proposed to protect individuals, companies and the governments from these threats still protect the rights of citizens?  ( d) Do you think that the steps taken or to be taken are ethical and will not cause a backlash in society?   Please elaborate (beyond a yes or no answer)

2.  ( a) Describe at least 3 of the most significant ethical/social issues for individuals and at least 3 of the most significant ethical/social issues for businesses/organizations in the field of Computer Science.  ( b) Which, if any, of these issues overlap both individuals and businesses/organizations?  ( c) For each issue that you identified that is causing a major ethical/social problem for society, suggest a solution for this problem.  Be as concise as possible in your answer and  do not address the issue of security threats in this question.   Please elaborate (beyond a yes or no answer)

3.  The field of computer science has changed during your lifetime and will continue to change in the future.  When the Computer Science department at this University was created in 1974 students were using keypunch cards to run programs on the main frame.  There was no PC, no cell phone, no phone aps, no internet, no Facebook, no Twitter, no Google, no Microsoft, etc.  The field of computer science has changed dramatically from then till now.  Over your entire life the changes could be as dramatic as it has been since the CS Department was created.  ( a) How important is it to you to keep up to date with the coming changes in hardware, software and ethical issues?  ( b) What specific steps will you engage in to make sure that you are up to date as a computer professional?   Please elaborate (beyond a yes or no answer)

When do you believe medications are warranted for treating psychological disorders?

Now this is one area of psychology that contains a diversity of opinions, both learned and ‘personal’. So, here goes a few thoughts to get you thinking.

1. When do you believe medications are warranted for treating psychological disorders? [Distinguish your answer between children and adults.] Sadly, some who need medication for their disorders refuse to use them.

2. Until you read this chapter, what did you think of ‘mental illness’ compared to how you now understand it to be? Did your opinions change on this matter?

3. If you know someone with a mental illness and feel comfortable posting it, how is the person treated (or refuse to be treated) and how difficult has the person’s progress been over the years?

I kept these somewhat general so your answers can reflect diversity of opinions…While the DSM-5 is the current manual, there are still those who still use the DSM-IV-TR, this question is a fusion between both manuals.

Some points:

1. Agoraphobia is no longer linked to Panic Disorder

2. Go with my descriptions of Bipolar Disorder from my notes- after reviewing the DSM-5 and what has been noted in several texts, there is definitely some misinterpretation of what the manual is actually saying.

explain how to improve documentation to support coding and billing for maximum reimbursement. 

EVALUATION AND MANAGEMENT (E/M)

Insurance coding and billing is complex, but it boils down to how to accurately apply a code, or CPT (current procedural terminology), to the service that you provided. The payer then reimburses the service at a certain rate. As a provider, you will have to understand what codes to use and what documentation is necessary to support coding.

For this Assignment, you will review evaluation and management (E/M) documentation for a patient and perform a crosswalk of codes from  DSM-5-TR to ICD-10.
