[The educational offer of masters in middle manager for the health professions]

In Italy recent legislation has been introduced regarding middle and top management roles in the health professions. Although universities have begun educational courses and health organizational models for coordination and management roles, unfortunately, there is still a lack of homogeneous and coordinated planning for putting the principles of legislation into practice correctly.

Investigation of these words in the main national searching motors: Masters, coordination, health professions. Statistic elaboration with the calculation of average and standard deviation. Graphs with histograms and maps. S.W.O.T. analysis.

General and specific data, averages and standard deviations, concerning the principal Masters activated in the academic year 2005/2006, in terms of participants, territorial distribution, profits and expenses , as well as the general number of the students in each classroom.

Comparative considerations were made between the data concerning the activation of Masters' courses and Specialist Degrees in the Health Professions and the question of how to develop a correct synergy between the managerial health professionals (Specialist Degree) and middle management professionals (Master).

The S.W.O.T. analysis underlines the important innovations in development of an organizational culture within the National Health Service, the great variability in the distribution of Masters' Schools throughout Italy, the need to apply rational and organizational models that combine effectiveness and efficiency without disorientating the professionals and managers holding organizational roles.
