To lead in today’s healthcare system, physicians must pair clinical insight with business strategy — skills not traditionally taught in med school.
The Physician Executive MBA (PEMBA) program from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Haslam College of Business fills this gap. In one year, PEMBA equips physicians with the agile leadership and business acumen necessary to tackle challenges like pricing pressures, value-based care mandates, integration of AI and physician burnout. PEMBA equips physician leaders to shape the future of healthcare, within organizations or through new ventures.
