The final project for this course is the creation of a capital budget proposal in which you will analyze a specific healthcare organization, identify areas of need and/or improvement within the organization, research various options to address these needs, and create a presentation in which you propose your options to decision makers. This will require close analysis of historical budgetary information for the organization, research regarding healthcare trends, and careful alignment of your proposal to the organization’s mission, vision, and values. The final product represents an authentic demonstration of competency because, while healthcare organizations differ greatly, managers in various departments in various organizations must present changes to processes, the purchase of new equipment, the addition of employees, and many other changes to executives and boards to obtain approval. A specific example of the necessary presentations department managers often perform is a capital budget proposal, whereby managers identify the various needs or areas of improvement in their department
and prepare proposals for decision makers.
In addition to the analysis and presentation needs discussed, this assessment will provide you with the opportunity to apply the financial budgetary knowledge you have gained throughout this course to a healthcare organization, as you would in the real world. While you will not be building the organization’s entire budget yourself, you will be discussing how your proposal impacts the current budget and what impact your proposal will have on future financial statements if implemented through the creation of a projected departmental budget that implements your proposal in the upcoming year. To complete this project, you will utilize one of two provided case studies, which will include the financial statements and information necessary for you to
analyze while preparing your budget request. Your final submission will be a presentation (either PowerPoint or an equivalent tool) with speaker notes, along with a projected departmental budget for the next year. You will not have to record your presentation.

The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Five, and Six. The final product will be submitted in Module Seven.

In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
· Analyze healthcare trends to inform effective decision making and financial planning within healthcare management
· Integrate effective communication and leadership principles into financial proposal presentations
· Articulate the purpose and importance of financial statements and principles for healthcare decision making
· Create realistic departmental budgets based on financial statements, healthcare trends, and strategic plans
· Create proposals that incorporate missions, visions, and values and align to strategic plans
Prompt
Your capital budget proposal presentation should use 12–20 PowerPoint slides (or similar presentation software) to answer the following prompt and it should
include an accompanying projected departmental budget: Select one of the following two organizations and accompanying financial information to create a
reasonable capital budget proposal that addresses the needs of the organization while aligning to the organization’s mission, vision, and values. Note that while
you will submit a single proposal, your proposal might include multiple items. For example, you might propose that the organization acquire a new piece of
equipment. Implementation of that item (the equipment) might require additional items such as software, spare parts, etc.
In order to utilize real-world financial statements, you must choose one of the following organizations to provide the context, background information and
organizational information for your proposal:
Organization #1: Venice Family Clinic
● 2018 Annual Report (most current Annual Report available)
● Consolidated Financial Statements for the Year Ended June 30, 2018
Organization #2: Joslin Diabetes Center
