An Evaluative Study of the Morris Rod-Weeder Company LTD. From a Marketing Perspective

The Morris Rod-Weeder Company is a farm tillage implement manufacturer based in Saskatchewan, Canada. The Company presently markets its products throughout mid-North America, and to France, Australia, North Africa, and the Middle East. Because of the wide variety of agricultural products and farming techniques, proper marketing of such equipment is crucial to a firm\u27s success. Based on the view that marketing 1s the all-encompassing coordination of the full spectrum of business activiti es from determining consumer needs and desires, to resource acquisit ion and allocation, through consumer education and product promotion, this study will describe present policies and processes by which the Morris Rodeeder Company functions. An evaluation will be undertaken for the purpose of uncovering deficiencies in management and administration as well as determining areas which are especially suc cessful, and investigating the reasons for resulting good or bad performances

The Impact of Informed Consent on Medical Malpractice Claims Involving Plastic Surgeons in the United States

A Thesis submitted to The University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine.Background: Medical malpractice lawsuits contribute directly and indirectly to the cost of healthcare in the United States. Reducing medical malpractice claims represents an often unrecognized opportunity for improving both the quality and affordability of healthcare. Objectives: The aim of this study was to better understand variables of the informed consent process that may contribute to reducing malpractice claims in plastic surgery. Methods: A prospective multiple choice questionnaire was distributed via email to all of the 1694 members of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) to evaluate attitudes and practices of informed consent in relation to medical malpractice. Results: A total of 129 questionnaires obtained from plastic surgeons were eligible for analysis (response rate 7.6%). Respondents who provided procedure-specific brochures to their patients were significantly less likely to be sued for medical malpractice (P = 0.004) than those who did not. Plastic surgeons that participated in malpractice carrier-required courses on avoiding medical malpractice litigation had a similarly significantly reduced likelihood of lawsuits. (P = 0.04) Conclusions: Variables that may reduce malpractice claims, and thereby both improve the quality and affordability of healthcare, include: (1) the use of procedure-specific patient education brochures; and (2) physician participation in malpractice insurance carrier-required courses. These findings should be of interest to physicians, hospitals, and insurance companies.This item is part of the College of Medicine - Phoenix Scholarly Projects 2020 collection.
