What this is

Grow referrals, contracts and partnerships in a healthcare market, inside the constraints the sector imposes. The course is organized into 6 modules — the healthcare buyer, market and referral analysis, referral development, contracting and partnerships, proposals and pitches and pipeline and forecasting — with 18 lessons in total, so you build the skill in a sensible order and can return to any part when you need it.

It is not clinical, legal or regulatory advice, and it does not promise referrals, contracts or revenue. Healthcare markets are regulated and vary by location; check local rules and involve your compliance team when needed.

What you will be able to do

  • Describe how healthcare buyers and referral sources make decisions
  • Analyze a local market and referral patterns
  • Plan and run referral development activity
  • Prepare for contracts and partnerships
  • Write proposals and keep a realistic pipeline forecast
