In recent years, many changes have taken place in the Turkish healthcare sector with the aim of preserving and improving the health status of society. These changes have led to an increase in competition in the healthcare sector which has continued to grow and evolve. As a result, there is an increased need for managers who can develop more efficient, more productive and more innovative solutions to problems experienced in the field and who possess conceptual, analytical and technical knowledge, skills and talents which can help guide the sector.
