This course will focus on the environmental factors, and the managerial implications of these factors, that are shared across the health sector context. More specifically, we will note that health care consumption decisions: o are subject to substantial ethical considerations and public-policy scrutiny o are made by multiple decision makers, often with competing economic interests o involve wide variation in levels of end-user knowledge and motivation yet often rely heavily on co-production o are made within rapidly-changing technological environments requiring education of stakeholder groups We will explore the implications of the above for marketing analysis, tactics, and strategy. We will review existing applied works within the topic area of healthcare marketing and experiences in this sector.
