Health Care Clinical Immersion
MGT 501a
Course Description:
This is an intensive immersion in the U.S. Health Care industry. A series of exercises will be conducted to allow students to experience a variety of aspects of the health care system first hand. Taken from the perspective a physician, a nurse, a patient, a scientist and an administrator, we will explore by doing and observing several key activities related to the delivery of health care. These activities may include a late night shift in the intensive care unit or emergency room, observation of a surgery, a visit to a disease management call center, caring for a SimPatient, coding and processing insurance claims, visiting a research laboratory and conducting several panel discussions and individual conversations with health care providers and other key system participants. The purpose of the course is to provide a rich context for students wishing to pursue a Health Care MBA and/or a career path in the health care industry.
