Inductive statistics concerns drawing conclusions based on a sample of
data available for analysis and the use of appropriate statistics, such
as the mean and standard error of some variable in the data set. For a
conclusion to be generally useful, the sample must be representative of
the population of interest. Give an example of how sample design can be
illogical. Will an illogical design automatically sabotage the
usefulness of results? Why or why not?

Emotional motivation can both improve and impair logical decision
making. When the consequences of a bad decision are very great, risk
aversion may become greater, and the same applies when uncertainty
becomes greater. Compare the advantages of heuristic versus algorithmic
decision-making for situations when great losses (such as total
destruction of a city) are possible. Which would be the best
decision-making method? Why?

Key Assignment

Many people throughout the United States face significant barriers to health care access. As policy makers and other stakeholders consider ways to address challenges related to access to care, one key area of focus involves those who lack insurance or have inadequate coverage through insurance. Submit a PowerPoint presentation of 8-10 slides including 100-200 word speaker notes in which you address the following:

• Consider the different stakeholders and perspectives impacted by health policy. How does access to insurance differ from access to care? Provide 1 specific example from your personal or professional life or from current events to support your response, and explain why this distinction is important.
• How did the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) of 2010 address access to insurance? How does current enacted legislation impact access to care? What do you see as the ultimate goal of expanding insurance coverage?
• If access to insurance coverage and medical care are increased through health care reform, what unanticipated consequences might arise? List the consequences associated with health stakeholders and perspectives.

Note: Your presentation must be formatted in APA style with 4 quality references, 2 of which are peer-reviewed sources from health care journals. References should be placed on the Reference slide at the end of the presentation.

Lesson 02: Assignment

Please respond to each question set in the order in which it appears below, inserting the number of the question set as a heading or in the first line of the response to that set.

QUESTION SET ONE

Five years ago, Hillary signed an independent contractor agreement with USA First. The agreement explicitly states that she is an independent contractor and describes her activities and remuneration at USA First’s gym in Missoula, Montana (“the gym”). Ten other personal trainers, several group fitness instructors, and three massage therapists, all of whom have signed independent contractor agreements, also provide services at the gym. USA First has particularly valued its ongoing relationship with Hillary because of her background in postpartum and cardiac rehabilitation fitness, specialties that USA First advertises in its promotional material.

For a monthly fee, USA First members are entitled to use the USA First swimming pool, locker room facilities, and fitness equipment; participate in group fitness and strength training classes; and get guidance about using the fitness equipment. For an additional $50 fee, members can book 1-hour personal training sessions and massages. While most of USA First’s revenues are generated by the monthly membership fees, a substantial stream of revenue flows from the personal training and massage sessions, which are popular with the members.

Under the terms of her agreement, Hillary is required to be at the gym on Monday through Thursday, from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. USA First pays her $10 an hour for that time. If USA First books Hillary for a personal training session, it pays her an additional $20 for each session. Pursuant to her agreement, Hillary must lead a group strength training class at 9:00 a.m., Monday through Thursday; answer members’ questions about fitness equipment; and fill in for instructors who call in sick or are otherwise unavailable to teach their group fitness classes. When she leads a group class, Hillary must use the format and music designated by USA First. Hillary, however, has free rein in her one-on-one personal training sessions, which take place at the gym using USA First equipment. Hillary provides a new set of TheraBands to each client at their first training session.

Hillary is free to wear the attire of her choice, but must sport a USA First logo. Hillary gets an employee discount at the gym’s shop, which offers a wide variety of branded merchandise, including leggings, shorts, T-shirts, and sports bras.

Hillary is thinking about offering weekend “bridal boot camps” at a local community center, where she can rent floor space. She plans to charge $150 per person for a 10-class boot camp series.

Last week, Hillary found out that USA First is paying $25 per session to three new trainers, Don, Mike, and Jeff. In response to her inquiry, USA First said that because the men had rejected the standard $20 rate, it had no choice but to meet their demands.

Hillary has now filed a discrimination complaint against USA First with the Montana Human Rights Bureau pursuant to state law. For purposes of this assignment, assume that the state law only applies to employees and that it incorporates the economic realities test discussed in the Lesson 2 course reading. Using the IRAC approach that we discussed last week,

1. Identify the important preliminary issue that the state agency will need to address before Hillary’s administrative claim against USA First can proceed. (Hint: the preliminary issue is not whether there was gender or sex discrimination.)
2. Analyze that preliminary issue in the context of our facts. Using the economic realities test (the rule here), please discuss the facts that would tend to support Hillary’s position on the preliminary issue and why they would support it, the facts that would tend to undermine her position and why they would have that impact, and any additional facts that would be important to know and why they would matter.
3. Finally, describe the conclusion that the Human Rights Bureau would likely reach on the preliminary issue based on our facts, and explain the basis for your conclusion.

QUESTION SET TWO

USA First wants to establish an unpaid internship program for personal trainers and strength coaches. How should it structure this program in order to avoid Fair Labor Standards Act issues? What specific features should the program include, and what specific features should it avoid in light of the course reading, including the Lesson 2 commentary and the updated DOL Fact Sheet #71?

QUESTION SET THREE

Some years ago, the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (“the Fund”) filed a class action lawsuit against a well-known fashion designer on behalf of the former employees of Jen Chu Fashion, a defunct Manhattan factory (“the factory”), which had manufactured apparel for the fashion designer. The Fund alleged that the fashion designer was liable for the factory’s alleged Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) violations.

Although that case was ultimately settled in real life, using an IRAC approach, discuss the following:

1. Had the case against the fashion designer gone forward, what preliminary issue would the court have had to resolve in order to hold the designer responsible for the factory’s alleged FLSA violations in light of the Lesson 2 course reading? (Hint: for purposes of this assignment, the preliminary issue related to the designer’s potential liability is not whether, in fact, the factory violated the FLSA.)
2. Identify the rule or test that courts use to analyze that issue. To receive points for this part of the question, you must reference a case in the Lesson 2 course reading in which the rule was applied, providing the full name of the case and the pages on which it appears in the textbook.
3. Discuss that court’s application or analysis of rule to the facts in that case.
4. In light of that court’s approach, describe what the Fund would have had to prove in order for the court to conclude that the designer could be liable for the factory’s alleged FLSA violations.
5. Give specific examples of the kinds of facts that the Fund would need to show to establish the designer’s liability.
