title: Five reasons why today is the best time to manage a health care business.
abstract: The first blush of the new millennium represents the dawn of a Renaissance Period in health care. Executives must consider the opportunities appearing directly in front of them and design a new vision and a new model of health care delivery. In this report, I outline the opportunities that never existed before the current period. I also discuss 5 steps critical to the odyssey of managing a health care business in the new millennium, thus providing a basis for why it is the best time, not the worst time, to be managing a health care business.
