The Hopkins Business of Health Initiative creates a collaborative space across Johns Hopkins University to incubate, accelerate, and disseminate impactful, world-class research on the business of health. It is supported by the Johns Hopkins’ Carey School of Business, the Bloomberg School of Public Health, the School of Nursing, and the School of Medicine, and convenes scholars across these schools whose research applies business principles to address the nation’s health system challenges.
The Business of Health draws on such fields as economics, management, operations research, marketing, finance, health policy research and health services research. Learn more about this evolving field and the impact on our nation's health and health systems through the work of three Bloomberg Distinguished Professors:
• Melinda J.B. Buntin, PhD - Health Policy and Management at the Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Carey Business School
• Theodore J. Iwashyna, MD, PhD - Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at the School of Medicine and Health Policy and Management at the Bloomberg School of Public Health
