Evaluating the Impact of Healthcare Delivery Systems on the Enhancement of Diabetes Treatment in the Native American Population

Is there a relationship between the diabetes inpatient Prospective payment system and the reduction of diabetes complications among the Native Americans? RQ2. How does diabetes-related cost for treatment affect the healthcare administrations attempt to reduce the complications associated with diabetes in the Native American population? Independent and dependent variables An independent variable can be defined as those factors that are the probable influence, cause or affect the outcome of the research. Dependent variables are those that depend on the independent variables. In other words, they are the outcome of the influence made by the independent variables. In the research study above, the potential independent variables that could be measured to answer the research questions above include; demographic factors, utilization of health care factors and payment methods ("Inpatient Prospective Payment System” (IPPS)| Data.

This is so because it could have operated in explaining the underlying relationship occurring between an independent and dependent variable even though its accessibility was not easy (Creswell, 2009). In the research study above, two potential variables that could possibly impact the study could include; perceived racial discrimination factors among healthcare administrators and healthcare access-related barriers. The choice on using of the above variables, the independent, dependent and confounding variable, will aid in evaluating the healthcare delivery systems impact on the enhancement of its treatment in the Native American population as some of the major affecting factors include; cost-related issues and occurrence of hospitalization (Kiecolt &Nathan, 1985).
