The SABIT Healthcare Administration Program for Western Eurasia and the Caucasus
is designed to train 18 mid- to senior-level executives from the Eurasian healthcare
sector. These delegates, screened and selected by the U.S. Department of Commerce,
represent the upper echelon of hospital administrators and head physicians from
three Western Eurasian countries (Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine) and three countries
from the Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia) whose health care systems are
currently undergoing a period of transition. This program will introduce participants
to the status and trends of the U.S. healthcare system and current themes in
hospital administration.
The
Healthcare Administration program
aims to introduce modern healthcare
management techniques to executives
from Western Eurasia. This will
be done primarily through meetings
with leading U.S. healthcare
organizations as well as related
U.S. companies, who will showcase
the latest in health care innovations
and best management practices.
The overriding goal is to provide
a comprehensive understanding
of hospital administration practices
in the United States, and for
these high-level managers to
return home with the skills and
knowledge necessary to affect
change and make improvements
within their own organizations
and healthcare systems.
This is a unique opportunity for U.S. companies to provide industry insight and
training while showcasing their products and services to Western Eurasian counterparts.
By hosting this SABIT Group, U.S. companies will build relationships with leaders
of the health care sector in the region. Through these valuable contacts host
companies can explore commercial opportunities and partnerships in the region.
