Introduction:

This training course will help healthcare professionals in the multitude of disciplines and functions in hospitals, clinics, and community health settings to navigate modern healthcare organizations' complexities and positively contribute to their financial and operational success.

Modern healthcare organizations are complex in the many different treatments and therapies provided and varied in their operating models and strategic and financial objectives: from the UK style national healthcare systems financed from taxation to the US-style insurance financed healthcare systems and profit-making enterprises.

In all of these models, the management of cost, efficiency, and economy is crucial, whether to operate within constrained funding budgets or make a profit.
