12	Debt management and revenue–enhancing strategies : a case study of the Hospital Fees Department at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital for the period 2008 – 2012 Poggenpoel, Deon Conway January 2015 (has links) Masters in Public Administration - MPA / Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital (RCWMCH), located in Cape Town, South Africa, is the only hospital in sub-Saharan Africa dedicated to children. It renders world–class public health-care services to sick children; 95% of which come from the poor, local and distant communities and require specialised treatment to recover. This case study aims to explore the factors associated with debt management and revenue-enhancing strategies in the Hospital Fees Department (HFD). The primary objective of the study is to examine the way in which the hospital manages outstanding debt and identify different empirical methods to improve revenue collection. In order to ensure the cost recovery of services, members of the public are billed and the expectation is, of course, for the bills to be paid. The hospital has a Hospital Information System (HIS) in place that consists of Clinicom and the Accounts Receivable System (ARS). The business design of Clinicom ensures that patient information is recorded and billed correctly. The ARS, on the other hand, ensures the collection of debt and reconciliation of state funds. The reason for choosing the HFD is that this component influences service delivery and funding. The importance of cost recovery to improve service delivery coincides with the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa and it is for this reason that people have the right to basic services. By making for sure revenues are collected, it ensures that the improved health-care services, to which they are entitled, are delivered to members of the public at the RCWMCH. The primary approach employed to collect information is made using structured questions and interviews with the members of the public and the RCWMCH management. The secondary approach is through the use of books in the field of finance, the HFD annual reports and policies. The study concludes with findings and makes recommendations to the RCWMCH management, the South African government and the academic arena at large. The researched information can be used as a tool to manage outstanding debt and improve revenue collection for the RCWMCH and other hospitals that face similar circumstances.

14	Das Löwenbild am Kriegergrab / Verkörperte Wahrzeichen Hartmann, Cornelia 18 July 2023 (has links) Die Arbeit untersucht die anthropologische Bedeutung des Löwenbildes anhand zweier Gefallenendenkmäler. Das ältere datiert in das ausgehende vierte Jahrhundert vor Christus und steht in Böotien, nahe des griechischen Dorfes Chéronia. Die Stadtgemeinde von Theben errichtete es anlässlich der unheilvollen Schlacht von Chaironeia im Jahr 338 vor Christus. Das zweite Werk, geschaffen 1858 von Anton Dominik Fernkorn, gilt der gewaltigen Schlacht von Aspern im Jahr 1809 bei Wien. Es befindet sich vor der Dorfkirche, die zwischen Habsburgern und Napoleon verlustreich umkämpft war. Entsteht die Spannung dieses Vergleichs aus der gegensätzlichen Haltung der Löwen – während der eine lagert und stirbt, sitzt und droht der andere –, zeigt sich, bei aller chronologischen und geographischen Distanz, ihre große ideologische Nähe. Jeweils gestiftet aus einer Krise der Nachkriegsgeneration führen sie die tapfere und beherrschte Haltung vor, mit der allein dem Schrecken der Welt zu begegnen ist: der eine im Vertrauen auf Gott, der andere dem Grauen selbst drohend. Die Deutung dieser Bilder plädiert in der Debatte um das Kriegerdenkmal für dessen Erhalt. / The dissertation examines the anthropological significance of the lion image using two monuments to the fallen. The older one dates to the late fourth century BC and is locaed in Boeotia, near the Greek village of Cheronia. It was built by the municipality of Thebes to commemorate the fatal Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC. The second study object, created by Anton Dominik Fernkorn in 1858, is dedicated to the vast Battle of Aspern in 1809 near Vienna. It is located in front of the village church, which was heavily contested between the Habsburgs and Napoleon. If the tension of the comparison arises from the contrasting pose of the lions – while the one lies down and dies, the other sits and menaces – in result, despite all the chronological and geographical distance, their great ideological proximity reveales. Founded in each case by a crisis of the post-war generation, they show the brave and controlled attitude with which alone the horror of the world can be countered; while the one trusting in god, the other threatening the horror itself. The interpretation of these images sharpens the term ‘war memorial’ for the debate about its preservation.

They were mentioned only briefly in the volumes of the Official Histories, and have been overlooked in many subsequent works on Australia and the First World War. Material in the Australian War Memorial has been used to address aspects of the experiences of these neglected men, in particular the Statements that some of them completed after their release This thesis will investigate how their experiences ran counter to the narratives of CEW Bean and others, and seeks to give them their place in Australia???s Twentieth Century experience of war.
