Abstract
Today's professional health care managers are routinely asked to share information with important stakeholders. For example, the manager of a clinical practice may be asked to present to physician owners the financial effects to be expected from a new managed care contract that will likely include lower reimbursements. When faced with these types of information requests, health care managers must find the best method of delivering information to their key stakeholders. This article presents a structured approach that health care management can use to prepare presentations to key stakeholders about different types of situations that are likely be encountered during a professional career.
