1. How do HCOs operate–how are they governed, what do boards do and what challenges do they face? What are the responsibilities of an HCO manager? What responsibilities do HCOs have in promoting health? In providing quality, coordinated and reasonably-priced health care? How can this be measured in relation to evidence-based management?
2. Health Information Technology: what is it, what is the government’s role (and why), what does HIT do for health care, how is it implemented, what are its challenges, and how will it work in the future? What’s good about EHR, and what’s not so good?
