Stakeholders are an important entity in an organization’s performance and operations; A stakeholder is a person or group that is involved in or affected by a course of action (Hughes-Rease,2015). internal stakeholders are within an organization and include health care professionals, administration and others that play important roles. External stakeholders include patients, suppliers, health insurance providers and other financial organizations; they also play an important role in the organizational operations. The support of stakeholders is important in the success of the change proposal because they have a large influence on the organization, and they would help provide knowledge, skills and resources to implement the change. The way to secure their support would be to keep them informed about the proposal and the changes that would need to be made and to demonstrate to them the EBP that supports the proposal. Keeping stakeholders involved in all parts of the proposal will allow them to provide input and to generate a positive adoption of the change.

Product Development

Health services continue to affect the gross domestic product, and this dramatic transformation puts great demands on each dollar spent to deliver patient-centered products. Health care marketing must be repeatedly applied and practiced strategically to include environmental dimensions, such as technology, socioeconomics, competition, and regulatory.

That being said, in today’s global economy, investors and potential entrepreneurs must tap into the so-called “unexplored” market. In this aspect, health care establishments must utilize marketing, advertising, as well as sales strategies when pursuing new customers (e.g., suppose a health care investor wanted to build a small hospital in a rural community); this would entail exploration and logistical experimentation to determine who will patronize the facility. In an impoverished neighborhood, the feasibility of having lucrative profits may see diminishing returns, and so the venture may be not worth the effort. Also, suppose that the potential investor wants to sell mosquito deterrents (e.g., bedside netting in malaria-infested regions of Asia or Africa); then it would be wise to investigate the number of beds that are actually in the village, and who would be willing to purchase them. These activities take into account the investor portfolio, as well as the feasibility of marketing and selling the product. Such exploration also examines competitors, cultural differences, and—most important—identification of the customer.

Identify a local health care establishment (e.g., hospital, rehabilitation center, or emergency medical center) and determine its product development practices. Utilize concepts from previous weeks to substantiate information, as needed. You may develop the discussion based on the ideas presented here, but feel free to inject any salient marketing strategy that you believe might support your presentation.

Assignment Instructions

3. Assess the importance of technology in providing patients with clear and accessible information about health care organizations and the products or services that they provide.

4. Outline a survey to capture patients’ expectations regarding the delivery and/or accessibility of the products or services identified.

5. Use at least three quality academic resources. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.
