Healthcare Risk Management Blog

This Blog exists to provide a venue for us to share ideas and opinions regarding Healthcare Risk Management. Faculty and staff from OHIC will regularly provide updates, particularly focusing on current events. You are encouraged to comment on their postings. Likewise, you are encouraged to post information that you come across and/or ask any questions that you might have. When we are face to face, we are continually sharing ideas and best practices. The Blog provides the venue to do the same when we are not co-located.
