The student is expected to NOT ONLY report the Census data, but look at patterns over time, forecast the trajectory, infuseyour understanding of micro-and macro-economics, finance, health policy, state and federal regulations, marketing, business, and clinical operations, and so forth in such a way as tomake the demographics make sense. In short, you're looking to explain the underlying drivers that contributed to the Census data results.

In addition, the student will complete a service area structural analysis using Michael Porter's five forces framework. Remember, this analysis will be looking at external forces that are contributing to service area competition with your approved healthcare department and NOT the organization that the department is a part. The student will recreate the below table and populate it with relevant content following the example provided. There are numerous Internet sites that contain information on Porter's five forces and should be helpful in determining the type of information which will be appropriate for inclusion in your analysis.
