Update from the USA: How to innovate during a pandemic and other management lessons
This webinar is part of the Management in Medicine Programme.

This seminar will focus on analysing several key innovation strategies health care organisations in the United States pursued in response to challenges and opportunities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. These strategies include transforming access to care for patient populations, integration of technology into health care work flows, redefining health care workflows, and reimagining the needs and preferences of patients for their care. Specific lessons for health care managers will be identified and discussed. In addition, the seminar will also speculate on what the embrace of health care innovation means individually for enhancing managerial competencies and personal development moving forward.
