The U.S. healthcare system is in the midst of transformational changes that have been catalyzed in part by the continued effects of the Affordable Care Act and the 2008 recession. This course will look at the major trends occurring in healthcare from a provider viewpoint, how leaders are both responding to and anticipating these changes, and how these changes will shape the healthcare system of the future. The goal of this course is to provide students with an understanding of the nature and context of the changes happening in healthcare, while also offering real-world perspectives from industry leaders who will speak to how they are adapting to and even shaping these changes in their roles. Upon completing this course, both clinical and non-clinical students will have gained greater insight into the healthcare system, which they will be able to apply to their current and future roles.
