Entrepreneur
Is the ability to take the factors of production or service-land, labor and capital and use them to produce new goods or
services.
The entrepreneur perceives opportunities that other business executive does not see or do not care about.
Entrepreneur sees a need and then brings together the manpower, materials, and capital required to meet that need.
Entrepreneurship:
Involves initiating changes in production.
The entrepreneurs always search for change, respond to it and exploit it as an opportunity.
Need to shift resources from approaches that have produced low value into areas of higher productivity and yield.
Entrepreneurs create value.
The key sectors of healthcare industry can be broadly classified into following four sub-segments:
Health care services and facilities.
Medical devices, equipment, and hospital supplies manufacturers.
Medical insurance, medical services and managed care.
Pharmaceuticals & Related Segments
Several examples of successful public health-related entrepreneurial ventures have emerged in the public health
literature, but more must be done to promote public health enterprise.12–15 Figure 1 outlines several industries and
ventures that are ripe for public health entrepreneurs
The role of entrepreneurship in any economy is critical, as it contributes to the socio-economic development of societies in
various ways, including
1. Identifying Existing Opportunities in the Market - Through production and distribution of goods and services,
entrepreneurial ventures seek to satisfy client needs and improve livelihoods.
2. Creating Employment Opportunities – Entrepreneurship helps bridge the unemployment gap through formal and
informal business ventures that employ millions of people.
3. Contributing to National Income – Through payment of taxes, businesses contribute to government revenue that
consequently facilitates development. Entrepreneurial ventures further contribute to the GDP, an indication of their
importance in raising revenue and financing government projects, as well as contributing to economic growth.
The main Barriers to Business Entrepreneurship in Nursing identified in this study are presented below:
Legal and regulatory issues - there is a lack of knowledge of legal issues, reimbursement policies and procedures for
the collection of hospitals, health plan operators, states or insurance companies.
Regulation of the profession - reflecting a traditional nursing structure, in most countries private practice is
unregulated, with a limited scope of nursing practice and, in many cases, still depending on the authority of
physicians.
Job career culture - there is a tendency to pursue careers in public health institutions, especially in countries where
the state is largely responsible for health and privatizations are less present.
Social values - often, by local culture or religious issues, families can be in charge of caring for people. This model
reduces the chances of hiring nursing professionals for this care.
Medical-centered model - in this organizational format, the main duty is to obey and follow the orders of physicians
and, under such conditions, it becomes difficult to play care roles that would be, at least theoretically, the
responsibility of nurses.
Hospital care model - in this standard, access to therapeutic tools for primary, secondary and tertiary prevention is
centralized in the hospital activity, with the private area remaining the focus in primary care and in the prevention of
diseases.
Reimbursement for health systems - the method adopted in some countries, both public and private, does not provide
for any form of payment, establishes a lower value payment, or even conceives coverage of services by health plans
inadequately.
Collaborative arrangements with physicians - the collaborative arrangement is understood as the partnership between
a nurse and a physician working in a private practice, being a model required in some countries as a reimbursement
criterion. In this model, besides the difficulty of finding a physician with whom to colla borate, the latter may charge a
fee for the establishment of the collaborative arrangement. In addition, these relationships reinforce the medico -
centered mode.
Economic crises and recessions - economic stability brings predictability and there is a tendency for entrepreneurs to
invest in new business, innovation and technology. However, financial crises and periods of long recession generate
insecurity and reduction in new investments of preparation for the role of manager and lack of operational skills,
resulting in the need for managerial development and training due to his deficiencies in business management.
Personal and ethical conflicts - personal values prevent the opening of businesses related to caring for people, since
profit generates ethical conflict; make money would be incompatible with the mentality of nursing services, more
related to volunteering than to profit.
Lack of acceptability and recognition by the public and by the class itself that is l represented by jealousy and the joke
of their colleagues. Behaviors such as these, presented by peers, can unfortunately have adverse psychological
effects on entrepreneurs. The same feeling is noticed when colleagues do not accept, do not help or even hinder the
disclosure of the business.
Lack of corporatism among nurses -this tendency is not observed to privilege the interests of the professional group
itself, reflecting more individualistic and less supportive attitudes.
Entrepreneurship involves initiating changes in production and finally entrepreneurs create value. Success is measured by
improved health outcome, change in social environment, and sustainable programming. Debate on Public Health
Entrepreneurship inherently anti entrepreneurial vs. offers opportunities for entrepreneurship. Bring positive change to
achieve improved health. In the end, remember that a bit of healthy competition is always good for the nation, especially
when it results in saving lives.
