Forum identifies differences between for-profit and not-for-profit boards.
In late 1984, the first Chaiker Abbis Invitational Forum on Hospital Governance was held in Montreal, Canada. The forum brought together a group of prominent health care leaders from the United States and Canada to discuss some of the similarities and differences between for-profit corporate boards and not-for-profit hospital boards. The following report examines the participants' views on the major differences between the two groups.
