Money is the lifeblood of any organization—for-profit, not-for-profit, or public. In most for-profit corporations, maximizing sales and profits, and returns to shareholders, is the primary objective.

●        How can the leaders of healthcare organizations reconcile these two positions? 

●        How do high-level executives manage the tradeoffs between maintaining the fiscal solvency of their organizations and providing health care services to all who seek them?
