Team devises solution to emergency department overcrowding
Master of Health Administration students Akarsh Gadey, Joy Mason, Stephanie Wilkins and Ihsan Zulkifly placed third at the UCLA Center for Healthcare Management Case Competition in January. The trio presented a proposed solution to overcrowding in the UCLA Health System’s emergency department.
Forty-eight teams were judged on written submissions, with eight ultimately invited to travel to Los Angeles to present. Olivia Lucrezi, a student in the combined MHA-MBA program, finished fourth as part of a Fisher College of Business team.
