Week 2 – PESTLE Analysis PowerPoint
Due Week 2 and worth 300 points
A PESTLE Analysis identifies political, economic, social, technological,
legal, and environmental factors. Review PESTLE Analysis at the
following https://www.groupmap.com/map-templates/pestle-anal…
The U.S. health care system costs $3.3 trillion last year and delivered
too little value (Blumenthal, 2017). For most Americans, health care is
not only expensive but also fragmented, inconvenient, and physically
inaccessible. Aetna, CVS, UnitedHealth Group and DaVita are health care
stakeholders who are engaging in mergers and acquisitions to produce a
higher quality product. Review the article “Is M&A the Cure for a
Failing Health Care System?” at
https://hbr.org/2017/12/is-ma-the-cure-for-a-faili…
in Harvard Business Review.

skills and metacognition to research current events in the macro
environment of the local hospital in your area. Your hospital selection
will be the same hospital used throughout this course. Review the
website information on your hospital selection and prepare a 10-slide
Microsoft PowerPoint narrative using a PESTLE Analysis
