Note: the tool you will use to evaluate the required guideline is the AGREE II Tool. Once you access the document in the link, the tool is all the way at the bottom of the document Entitled: AGREE Tool II. You may need to reproduce the tool in a MS Word document or you may develop each domain in a narrative format but be sure to score each domain per the tool.

discussion board2

instructions from my professor:

In our Great country of the United States of America, it is the law in all Emergency Rooms/Departments to treat everyone that visits & requires healthcare treatment.  In Chapter 3, we discussed the Health Policy and the Delivery System.  What if uninsured/ unauthorized/illegal/ immigrants visit the ER requiring healthcare treatment; who should be responsible to pay for their treatment?  What policy would you create to support your view, and how would you implement this policy as a Family Nurse Practitioner in your role as a Public Health Administrator?   You may refer to p. 79 & 80. 

Please be specific & elaborative as possible.
