Organizational Ethics
Next On-Campus Graduate Seminar:
Organizational Ethics I: Business,
Professionalism and Justice
(BEHP 412- Special Topics),
June 24-25, 2010
Course Instructor: Mark Kuczewski, PhD
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course examines
ethical issues in health care from the vantage point
of decision makers who shape the system, e.g.,
physicians within a group practice, administrators
within a health system, or advocates within a
community. In particular, issues of balancing
fidelity to the mission of a health-care
organization with limitations emanating from its
operating or profit margin will be considered in
detail. The social and economic context of health
care in the United States will be overviewed as the
background for considering the responsibilities
social justice entails to self, one's profession,
the various institutions of which a healthcare
profession is a member, one's patients, and the
underserved. The course is a month-long hybrid of
online learning and a three-day intensive experience
on the campus of Loyola University Medical Center
(Maywood, IL)(3 credits, course prerequisites: none)
