Transforming Healthcare Through Innovation

This course explores the fundamental role of public policy, economics, and technology in transforming the national healthcare landscape through progressive innovation over time. Through lectures, discussions, and cases studies we will examine the complex history, present day realities, and future considerations of health policy, healthcare economics, emerging technologies and their cumulative role in shaping care delivery, access, and national health outcomes for all Americans. We will examine landmark health policy decisions over the past century that have defined American healthcare and will analyze their downstream impact.
