Health economics: Improving the efficiency of the Hope Clinic

This paper is a detailed and comprehensive summary of my Integrative Service Project as a Service-Learning Scholar at the University of Utah. I utilized my education in health economics to address a community need at the Hope Clinic in Midvale, Utah. I investigated the use of electronic health records and health information technology in order to find the best solution for their need. Through this entire process I was able to integrate the curriculum from my Economics degree to establish an internship through the University of Utah for students to help address the need. I have detailed the motivation, procedure, and results in this paper.
