- Synopsis
-
Healthcare finance can be a fascinating, exciting subject, yet students often regard it as being either too theoretical or too mechanical. The fact is, sound financial decision making requires good theory and analysis, plus a great deal of insight and judgment. The best way to get this point across to students, and to demonstrate the inherent richness of the subject, is to relate classroom work to real-world decision making. When this is done, students learn not only the concepts but also, even more important, how the concepts are applied in practice. The most realistic application of healthcare finance occurs in healthcare organizations, and there is no substitute for on-the-job experience. The next best thing, and the only real option for the classroom, is to use cases to simulate the environment in which financial decisions are made.
The purpose of this casebook is to provide students with an opportunity to bridge the gap between learning concepts in a classroom setting and applying them in the real world. By using the cases in this book, instructors can help students who have a basic understanding of healthcare finance better prepare for the multitude of problems that arise in practice.
