Principles of Finance course for Dental Practice
This session provides an outline of the options through which resources can be raised and subsequently distributed. It provides a framework to explore differing system options, the potential impacts that arise and how these affect care provision.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Describe the arrangements through which funds can be accrued
- Describe the arrangements for distributing any funds
- Explain how differing arrangements can impact on care provision
All health care systems require financial resources for the system to function. The resources pay for equipment, premises and perhaps most importantly provide an income for care providers.
