You are the healthcare administrator for a large health services organization that is part of a large healthcare delivery network. The board has just completed
an urgent meeting and has called you in. The board has decided to revisit its current legal structure and would like to determine if the current structure is
sufficient to adhere to healthcare policy and law. One of the important things that the board has asked you to consider is the importance of a health services
organization’s legal structure in impacting the governance of policies and laws for effective healthcare delivery. The board has asked that you perform and
submit a SWOT analysis that identifies the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of not only the current legal structure but also that of another
legal structure that you would recommend to adhere to the board’s request.
For this Assignment, review the resources for this week and reflect on the impact of a health services organization’s legal structure on adherence to
healthcare policy and law mandates. Then, consider the strengths and weaknesses of your health services organization’s legal structure and reflect on what
aspects of the current legal structure should be changed or what other legal structure might most provide a benefit for the goals of your health services
organization.
Perform a SWOT analysis that identifies which legal structure is most appropriate for your health services organization and explain why.
Be sure to include references from peer-reviewed sources in the literature.
