The use of epidemiological tools in health care management can be described as managerial epidemiology. Several formal definitions have been proposed for managerial epidemiology. These include: * The use of epidemiology for designing and managing health care for populations. * Effective management of resources to maintain and promote the health of populations. * The use epidemiological concepts and tools to improve decisions about the management of health services. ==History== The potential value of epidemiology in health care management has long been recognized. Academics were encouraging use of epidemiological methods in health care management for quality improvement and planning before the term ‘managerial epidemiology’ was coined. (See for example Rohrer 1989.) Epidemiology became a required subject in health care management programs and textbooks were written for those courses. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Managerial epidemiology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
