As explained throughout the book, consolidation and cooperation are the future because all of the varied segments of healthcare must ultimately work together. There are many other kinds of trade organizations such as hospital associations, nursing home associations, case management organizations, geriatric associations, nursing- and other discipline-specific specialty organizations, professional associations, and more that may also be of interest. This listing is not all-inclusive, and some organizations or associations are undergoing name and other changes to better reflect the members they serve.
