Describe Nursing Services in terms of how regulated it currently is.
Do
you think this current state of regulation is appropriate? Why or why
not? What problems have arisen because of regulation or the lack
thereof?
What
specific proposals do you have to increase, decrease, or otherwise
modify regulation or government involvement within this submarket? What
should the government’s role be in addressing issues of concern? What
would be some potential consequences of these solutions?
Who would most benefit from this change? Who might suffer negative consequences?
Your
