In order to understand the implications of legal and regulatory policies in health care promotion and wellness, it is mandatory to analyze the impact of the social needs of local populations on their health care issues.
Based on your understanding of the topic, create a report in a Microsoft Word document answering the following questions:

What are the benefits measuring the health status of individuals aged fifteen to sixty four years in a particular community or an entire population? What effect do these benefits have on the health status of the community or the entire population?
Which one health statistic has had the most significant impact on the health care profession in the entire US or your community in the last year? Discuss.
