The Yale Management Guide for Physicians

Rating:
Summary: Finally--A Doctor/Manager Who Knows What He Is Talking About
Review: The practice of medicine has become increasingly complex. Sadly, for many who chose the field to care for people, it is becoming more and more of a business. Rimar, a professor at Yale and a Director of their medical group, developed a course for doctors to educate them in the realities of management and business. The Yale School of Management is a co-sponsor of this effort. Rimar has accomplished what no other physician has been able to do in this area. Perhaps because he is also a practicing anesthesiologist, he knows how to communicate with physicians and other healthcare professionals. This book is superbly written, of great practical value and belongs on the bookshelf of anyone who is interested in or considers him or herself an expert in health care.
