Health Economics for Managers I

Catalog description

This course is the first of a two-part sequence for Executive Master of Health Administration (EMHA) students. The sequence is largely dichotomized into demand-side (first course) and supply-side (second course) health economics material. Both courses will review and enhance existing knowledge of health care delivery and related policy issues, using the lens and tools of microeconomics. Within Health Economics for Managers I, the specific topics covered will span consumer behavior, sources and markets for health insurance, health behaviors, and environmental and population health.
