Health Care Management: Definition, Shortcoming and Impacts Health care administration is defined as the process through which a country, region, or organization mobilizes health care resources. The end goal of health care administration/management is to effectively delegate a limited set of resources (money, manpower, hours) to create an optimal result (positive health outcomes). While the broadest goal is singular across all regimes, the means to access them are divergent. In some countries, such as the United States, market based models have commercialized health care (Woolhandler, 2003). Like any other product, health care in America is to be bought and sold on the open market. While there were alternative options available for the poor and elderly (Medicaid/Medicare), health care access was determined purely by market processes (Woolhandler, 2003).

Running a hospital is a difficult task. Several factors need to be seriously thought of and considered in every decision and undertaking. Unfortunately, all the three important factors in governing a hospital is not always in harmony. As likened to a team sport, if the three major components are not working with each other as a team, there will be tension and a great divide will be experienced. And often times, the patients will be in the middle and will be greatly impacted. This writer believes that there are several factors that contribute to the tension that usually exists among the medical staff, the board and administration. One factor is the disconnect, where each entity is not seeing each other eye to eye and their visions may be different from each other. Another factor may be the lack of communication in order to bridge the gap and to build a respectful and a relationship wherein there is trust for each end every member of the group.

Visioning and Strategic Thinking in Healthcare A country’s economy and well-being depends upon how strong its healthcare system is.

As Donley (2005) states, “[t]he changing patterns of health care delivery have increased complexity in all practice environments” (p. 314). By a complicated system, it means how different healthcare organizations together play a pivotal role in measuring success of a country’s healthcare system. These healthcare organizations further rely on various departments within the system which are in turn led by various leaders. Thus, it is evident how leaders are the key link in deciding the fate
