title: Trends, issues, and models in health services and health policy programs in business school settings.
abstract: This article briefly examines the evolution and convergence of graduate programs in health services administration in business school environments. Some of the problems along the way are identified through the discussion of the different tasks of professional as compared to academic knowledge. The underlying point is the degree to which the professions should be able to draw on academic knowledge from the disciplines to frame and analyze future problems and situations. Alternative models are present which build on the generic M.B.A. curriculum.
