Risky Business This unit includes an unit overview and 3 subunit overviews with built-in lessons. Unit description from the source: Students will learn about lifestyle and genetic influences on health status and about the health insurance system in the United States. They will imagine a future healthcare environment in which technology has greatly advanced, treatment costs have escalated, and individual lifestyle and medical data are widely available to insurers. In this scenario, insurance companies routinely use this kind of information to create programs aimed at improving health outcomes, set insurance rates, approve or deny applications for health insurance, and reduce healthcare expenses. |
