QM 724QH
Health Care Institutions and Policy 1
Henry Christian Eyring
Description from DukeHub
In most markets, the consumer chooses, pays for, and consumes a product. However, in health care, we often find that a provider chooses, an insurer pays, and a patient consumes. We will describe health care providers, insurers, manufacturers, and regulators, and how they interconnect in health care. While health care is different from other markets, the tools of business and the social sciences nevertheless provide valuable insights about strategy and policy. The course will provide background for subsequent health courses in the curriculum. This course is for MSQM: Health Analytics students.
