A new – and rapidly changing – environment challenges today’s health care managers, presenting opportunities to those who understand change and who have the skills to lead others. The Master of Medical Management (MMM) program teaches these skills to physician executives, arming them to lead today’s health care organizations and to shape the future of tomorrow’s health care industry. The program concentrates on three distinctive but related competencies physician executives need in order to build and manage successful health care organizations. These core competencies address effective management of information, strategy, and organizational management.
