Program Components
The role of physicians is evolving. The business of healthcare has changed significantly in the last decade and requires all physician leaders to develop managerial and interpersonal skills to deliver value to their patients. Business acumen will improve the leadership and decision-making skills of anesthesiologists, vital skills to improve the efficacy of healthcare delivered around the world.
