Current Canadian Public-Private Partnerships Health Policy; why are provincial drug plans structured differently from province to province.

Essay structure:
Analytic papers are not just a description of what is in a policy. They are an analysis of the reasons why a policy exists and its strengths and weaknesses.
HERE IS ONE EXAMPLE OF HOW TO STRUCTURE AN ESSAY:
• The essay has to deal with a current health policy question or a health policy issue and it has to be a Canadian question or issue.
• A health policy question could be something like what is the best way of ensuring that people are able to receive the medications that they need. A health policy issue could look at the same question from a different perspective, e.g., why are provincial drug plans structured differently from province to province.

Structure for a Current Canadian Public-Private Partnerships Health Policy question why are provincial drug plans structured differently from province to province essay

o Start off by stating what is the question that the essay will address, e.g., “This essay will look at whether Canada should have a national pharmacare plan.”
o The essay would then describe the policy or policies that have been developed about pharmacare, e.g., should everyone be covered for all drug costs by a national plan, what should we do about very expensive drugs, should such a plan pay for all drugs or just those that are life saving.
o Next would be a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the proposals or policies.
o Finally, in the conclusion you should give your assessment about whether or not the policy that has been developed has been successful, a failure, partly successful, etc. and why you have come to that conclusion or whether or not the proposals are likely to be successful, etc. and why you have come to that conclusion.

Tips for Writing Current Canadian Public-Private Partnerships Health Policy Academic Essay

1. Start your essay by saying what the topic is.
2. Around the end of the first paragraph you should say what specific areas related to your topic that you want to cover in your essay.
3. If you are using non-Canadian material make sure you say why you think that it’s relevant to Canada.
4. If you are using older material (generally more than 10 years old) make sure you say why you think that it’s still relevant today.
5. If you are not confident in your writing ability then have a friend (or someone in your family) who you think is a good writer read over your essay before you hand it in.
6. If you don’t know anyone who is a good writer then use the writing centre. Remember it gets busy late in the term and you’ll need to make an appointment early.
7. Don’t write page long paragraphs. Each paragraph should be about one idea. If you switch ideas start a new paragraph.
8. Essays do NOT contain long bullet point lists. Essays are written in paragraph form.
9. In general no more than about 10% of your essay should be direct quotes. Too many direct quotes make it difficult to know if you understand the material and your writing style can’t be evaluated. Too many quotes will lose you marks.
10. If you are writing an essay about a policy issue then it’s not enough just to describe a problem. You need to critically assess why this is an important issue and what can be done about it.
11. If you are searching databases, phrases more than about 3 or 4 words are very unlikely to return many, if any, results. Instead of one long phrase break it up; e.g., instead of “the effects of public-private partnerships on hospitals costs” use “public-private partnerships” AND “hospital costs”. If this combination of terms doesn’t give you what you want then you can substitute something for “hospital costs”, e.g., “hospital expenditures”.
12. Be clear about what types of words and phrases need to start with a capital letter.
13. Word processing programs such as Microsoft Word don’t catch all types of spelling mistakes. For example, if you type “there” when you mean “their” Microsoft Word won’t identify this as a spelling mistake. READ OVER YOUR ESSAY FOR SPELLING.
14. Essays always look great right after you finish them. Put your essay aside for a couple of days and reread it to make sure it still looks great.
15. Make sure that you understand what an academic reference is. Academic references are generally academic books, chapters in academic books, journal articles and material from official web sites, e.g., the Health Canada web site. Newspaper and magazine articles are not academic references. Wikipedia is not an academic reference.
16. Use references for the points that you make. You don’t need a reference if you say something that is common knowledge, e.g., it is 4000 km from Toronto to Vancouver. However, if you say that 51% of the population in Toronto is female compared to 52% in Vancouver you’d need to cite a reference. Any ideas that you get from material you have read need to be referenced.
17. If you don’t know how to correctly cite references then look it up the correct style. Don’t make up your own style.
