A Management Approach to Healthcare
The demands in today鈥檚 healthcare environment require those clinically prepared to have managerial and leadership skills that are not learned in traditional training. The delivery of healthcare services is ever more complex, interactive and team-oriented. A thorough understanding of the whole field and all aspects of delivery are critical to contain costs and errors as well as to improve patient outcomes.
Healthcare delivery systems throughout the world are called upon to deliver more services, with enhanced technology, to more patients, at lower costs.
