BUS 775 - Managerial Health Economics

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 3
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 3

This is a course in applied microeconomics. It is designed for students who already understand basic consumer and producer theory, and focuses on how health care markets differ from other markets. Because of asymmetric information, uncertainty, government involvement, and externalities, the economics of the health care sector and its players (patients, providers, insurers, employers, and government) requires a special analysis. The student will learn how to apply microeconomic tools to study the medical care system and analyze the economic aspects of health care policy implications.


Prerequisite(s): BUS 506 , ECON 256 , UAECO 163 , or RECON 163 and (BUS 503A  and BUS 503B ), (UAMAT 125  and UAMAT 126 ), MATH 121 , or comparable intro statistics course
