Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University and the University of California have joined UM in developing this prototype course in health care administration. t “Legal Aspects of Health Care,” taught by Dr. Albert Harum, professor of business law, presents the liability for acts of omission or commission by health care providers, administrators and supportive personnel for acts of the medical staff, residents, interns, nurses, special duty nurses, and non-professionals. t “The Politics of Health Care,” taught by Dr. Robert Zuckerman, associate professor of politics and public affairs, focuses on the political and economic aspects of the current health care crisis in the United States, with emphasis placed on public policy as it affects health care delivery. These courses are part of the health care administration concentration of the M.B.A. program. Currently, according to Dr. Natiello, about a dozen colleges and universities teach this type of specialty on a graduate level, “but most follow the traditional ‘hospital administration’ approach. Few take the managerial approach to health, which applies managerial and administration con^pts to the entire health care field.” “The quality of care that a patient receives is based on the ability of the physician or hospital administrator to bring the entire health care delivery system to bear on the patient’s behalf,” said Dr. Natiello. “Using management and administration techniques, we try to show the students the best way to structure an organization for efficient health care delivery, how to develop programs that will serve the needs of the organization and allocate resources fairly and properly.” Using the concept of health administration rather than just hospital administration gives the program more flexibility to deal with other important areas of the health care field, according to Dr. Natiello—health maintenance organizations, group practices, clinics, ambulatory care centers, nursing homes, and government planning agencies. “Students are enthusiastic about the program,” he said. “They feel that it will help them make a contribution to the quality of life and become socially responsible.” University OF MIAMI Coral Gables, Florida 50 Years of Progress 1925-26/1975-76 Bowman Foster Ashe First President / University of Miami / 1926-1952 Eight Receive Sabbaticals The Faculty Senate Sabbatical Leave Committee has recommended that the following members of the full-time faculty be awarded leaves for the period indicated. The Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs endorsed the recommendations of the Committee and President Stanford has approved them. “This year there were far more requests for sabbatical leave than the University could accommodate with its limited resources,” said Dr. Sidney Besvinick, acting vice president for academic affairs. “Despite the constraints of a tight budget year, I am pleased to announce that eight awards have been approved for 1976-1977.” They are as follows: Dr. Lowell Thomas, biology and living resources (Feb. 1977 to May 1977). To develop field aspects of marine biology courses and complete work on a book dealing with the shallow water marine flora and fauna of tropical Florida and the Caribbean. Dr. Oscar Owre, biology (Jan. 1977 to May 1977).
