HLTHMGMT 711
Health Sector Strategy and Innovation
Henry Christian Eyring
Description from DukeHub
We will apply tools from business and the social sciences, especially economics and strategy, to challenges faced by managers, patients, and policy makers in the health sector. We will aim for broad coverage of health care, including patients, providers and manufacturers. We will pay particular attention to payers. Payers are of interest throughout the health sector, because most providers and manufacturers want to be paid, and because third party payment influences consumer/patient decisions. This course is intended to prepare people for other Health Sector Management electives. This course is for Daytime MBA and Accelerated Daytime MBA students.
