The Marylhurst Healthcare MBA program and 26 years of work experience in the healthcare industry will enable me to help others find and receive affordable quality healthcare. Even though, we have Obama Care people are complaining that they cannot receive quality medical care at affordable prices. In some cases, they are going without medical treatment because they cannot afford the co-pays.

First of all, they have to develop a clear vision and a mission statement to inspire and motivate all the frameworks for the company’s future strategic planning. According to “Mission Statements and Vision Statement” (2011), “by crafting a clear mission statement and vision statement, you can powerfully communicate your intentions and motivate your team or organization to realize an attractive and inspiring common vision of the future” (p.1). The management team should create a mission statement that describes the company’s purpose and primary objective. For the vision statement, it should include the company’s value and purpose of the company.

The Center for Healthcare Research and Transformation is a think-tank non-profit organization borne of our very own university in a partnership with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan designed to bring light to best practices and opportunities to improve health care policy and practice. The organization stands as a neutral advocate. Its purpose is stated simply: “to promote evidence-based care delivery, improve population health and [overall] expand access to care” (Center for Healthcare Research & Transformation (CHRT), 2015).
