Overview
The Rotman School has developed an exciting new workshop focused on the strategies and operations of private ophthalmology clinics. These clinics, owned and operated by physicians, are becoming increasingly important in many provinces in Canada, as governments seek to contain healthcare costs by shifting ambulatory procedures out of hospitals into lower cost clinics that provide patients with quicker access and a fuller range of products and services than is currently offered by the public system.
Attendees will:
- Improve their understanding of the public policy environment across Canada regarding private surgical clinics
- Learn the basics of financial modeling of capital and operating costs for running a private clinic
- Develop a deeper understanding of regulatory requirements for clinic architecture, marketing strategies and a range of operational tactics by listening to experts in the field
