CCE 14
The Business of Healthcare (Beyond the Doctor's Office)
Winter 2025
Class Details
Imagine going to get a flu shot. You might think that the businesses involved in that transaction are just your doctor and insurance company, but in actuality, that transaction involves more than a hundred different businesses all touching parts of the care process. This course will dive into the complexity of the healthcare industry, covering the major types of organizations in the healthcare industry – not just doctors, pharmaceuticals companies, and insurers, but also the thousands of companies that sell to them. Students will read and discuss each of the major sub-industries, and the final project will be a market analysis for an individual healthcare company.
