The assignment (1/2page)
Post a cohesive response to the following:
Describe the three takeaways which are the most important and relevant for you in your current role. How can this information impact the long-term viability of your organization? If you are not working in a healthcare organization, name three takeaways from this course that you can apply in your current situation.
Consider what changes or considerations could be sustainable and still in place nine months from now. Which changes will still be in place in 18 months? Which will be still in place two years from now?

Part 2:
For this assignment, you are asked to select an emerging technology and evaluate its cost-effectiveness and potential adoption. Many novel technologies require significant rethinking of current workflows, roles, culture, and financial models. You are asked to consider how the technology you chose affects these aspects of the current health ecosystem. Likewise, leaders must also consider that some emerging technologies completely lack a financial policy framework.
To prepare:
Assess an emerging technology trend in the Learning Resources or one that you prefer to research on your own.
