About This Course
Innovation is the lifeblood of health care. It is the identification of unmet needs and ensuing modifications in health policies, practices, systems, products, and delivery methods that lead to improved patient outcomes. This course provides a foundational understanding and practical skills around innovation that you can confidently use throughout your health care career. Managers with these skills are highly valued by payers, providers, government agencies, and other stakeholder organizations.
Instructors
"The element I love most in working with HSM students is the excitement and new visions that they bring to healthcare. As a constantly evolving field, and an industry plagued with problems to solve, we need new ideas, change, hope, and vision in the healthcare industry and I see that daily in my work with HSM students."
