Developed collaboratively by WMG's Institute of Digital Healthcare, Warwick Medical School and The National Health Service, this Healthcare Operational Management MSc drives the implementation of innovative digital technologies and services to facilitate improvement in the complex healthcare service sector.
This course has been designed to fulfil the specific needs of graduates interested in a management or leadership role within the complex distributed health service sector. Healthcare organisations share many commonalities with production facilities, including the need for efficient process flow, harnessing the advantages of data and technologies for decision-making, change management, and quality standards.
You will explore the principles, approaches, strategies and techniques to understand, model, analyse and manage complex healthcare systems. You will learn to measure efficiency and improve effectiveness and productivity, without compromising quality or safety. Ultimately, you will gain the essential knowledge to manage the integration of people, processes, systems, and technologies to ensure the delivery of consistent, cost-effective, high quality, person centric care.
