title: Healthcare partnerships for the 21st century.
abstract: Traditional business models employed over the last 30 years began breaking down during the '80s and are completely disintegrating during this decade. Traditional organizational models have led to underutilization, waste and unnecessary excess. For healthcare institutions to survive and thrive, a new management model must be implemented by employing business partnerships and alliances to optimize information, systems, products and resources.
