Healthcare has many different cultural components that will be discussed as historic trends as well as future demographic challenges.

At the end of the day, you will gain an appreciation for the role of creativity, innovation, discovery, and expression across disciplines in the development of new medical care solutions through and examination of the physician, medical technology and financing sub-sectors of the health economy....

It's a dynamic industry so perhaps provide links where new research and statistics can be found. Great course for those new to the industry.

The material was really interesting and especially timely. I enjoyed completing the peer reviewed assignments and thought it allowed us to reflect well on the material we learned.
