Overview

Providing world-class patient care requires knowledge and skills that address patient advocacy, analytics, leadership and the needs of patients and their families. This exciting specialty, offered at the School of Health Professions, builds the insight and experience needed for a career working closely with patients from all backgrounds.

The Healthcare Analytics and Advocacy at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston will enhance the skills of students who are currently practicing in health care disciplines. Individuals not practicing in health care will learn skills to ensure quality family and patient-centered care is offered to patients and their families through patient advocacy.
