Assignment: Agenda Comparison Grid and Fact Sheet or
Talking Points Brief
It may seem to you that healthcare has been a national topic of
debate among political leaders for as long as you can remember.
Healthcare has been a policy item and a topic of debate not only
in recent times but as far back as the administration of the
second U.S. president, John Adams. In 1798, Adams signed
legislation requiring that 20 cents per month of a sailor’s
paycheck be set aside for covering their medical bills. This
represented the first major piece of U.S. healthcare legislation,
and the topic of healthcare has been woven into presidential
agendas and political debate ever since.
As a healthcare professional, you may be called upon to provide
expertise, guidance and/or opinions on healthcare matters as
they are debated for inclusion into new policy. You may also be
involved in planning new organizational policy and responses to
changes in legislation. For all of these reasons you should be
prepared to speak to national healthcare issues making the
news.
In this Assignment, you will analyze recent presidential
healthcare agendas. You also will prepare a fact sheet to
communicate the importance of a healthcare issue and the
impact on this issue of recent or proposed policy.
To Prepare:
Review the agenda priorities of the
current/sitting U.S. president and the two previous presidential
administrations.
Select an issue related to healthcare that was addressed by each
of the last three U.S. presidential administrations.
Reflect on the focus of their respective agendas, including the
allocation of financial resources for addressing the healthcare
issue you selected.
Consider how you would communicate the importance of a
healthcare issue to a legislator/policymaker or a member of
their staff for inclusion on an agenda.
The Assignment: (1- to 2-page Comparison Grid, 1-Page
Analysis, and 1-page Fact Sheet)
Part 1: Agenda Comparison Grid
Use the Agenda Comparison Grid Template found in the
Learning Resources and complete the Part 1: Agenda
Comparison Grid based on the current/sitting U.S. president and
the two previous presidential administrations and their agendas
related to the public health concern you selected. Be sure to
address the following:
Identify and provide a brief description of the population health
concern you selected and the factors that contribute to it.
Describe the administrative agenda focus related to the issue
you selected.
Identify the allocations of financial and other resources that the
current and two previous presidents dedicated to this issue.
Explain how each of the presidential administrations
approached the issue.
Part 2: Agenda Comparison Grid Analysis
Using the information you recorded in Part 1: Agenda
Comparison Grid on the template, complete the Part 2: Agenda
Comparison Grid Analysis portion of the template, by
addressing the following:
Which administrative agency would most likely be responsible
for helping you address the healthcare issue you selected?
How do you think your selected healthcare issue might get on
the agenda for the current and two previous presidents? How
does it stay there?
Who would you choose to be the entrepreneur/
champion/sponsor of the healthcare issue you selected for the
current and two previous presidents?
Part 3: Fact Sheet or Talking Points Brief
Using the information recorded on the template in Parts 1 and 2,
develop a 1-page narrative that you could use to communicate
with a policymaker/legislator or a member of their staff for this
healthcare issue. Be sure to address the following:
Summarize why this healthcare issue is important and should be
included in the agenda for legislation.
Justify the role of the nurse in agenda setting for healthcare
issues.
