By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1. Explain the new role of consumers in healthcare delivery in order to respond to the demands in this changing industry 2. Identify the key players in the healthcare ecosystem 3. Describe how the healthcare system operates and its impact on consumer-driven healthcare. 4.

Extremely well structured and great peer discussions. Interactions with healthcare professionals across the globe helped me in understanding the opportunities in the way health care is changing towards patient centricity and how the patient is transforming into a consumer. Thankful to great content and presentation by Prof. Russ Moran.
While taking this course I was simultaneously reading a book about how healthcare became a big business and how consumers could 'take it back'. There was a lot of relevant crossover and this course made it much easier to understand important issues and changes that have, are, and will happen in the healthcare industry.
Thank you, Russ Moran, Executive Adjunct Professor at Northeastern University, for doing a fabulous job focusing on the consumers' healthcare needs and how healthcare is too expensive in America. I enjoyed your presentations and student engagement exercises.

very good. enjoyed it and learned a great deal.
Yes, It's Well Structure program, I like it
Helpful but not very detailed.
It is a little outdated.
Some of the tests were extremely hard to pass with the multiple answer options. Also, a lot of the external articles and videos were either inaccessible or needed a subscription to access.
The course is only focused in US healthcare system and not anywhere around the world.
The way courses are structured (2-3 minutes of videos on multiple issues) makes it not so easy to get an eye on the big picture.
The peer-reviewed pieces are not necessarily adding value to the learning experience.
