Tools necessary for this task are not often taught in traditional healthcare education. This course will discuss financial planning concepts, break-even analysis, development of a planning checklist and the presentation of the plan. After attending this session, the participant will have the knowledge to evaluate new service lines and products that improve patient care and the health of the organization.
