Exploring Healthcare Entrepreneurship Ecosystem to Foster Solutions for Underserved Communities

Abstract

There are significant disparities in access to healthcare treatment and this study investigates the healthcare entrepreneurship ecosystem and the challenges and considerations associated within. There is a lack of research on how to evaluate and assess the healthcare entrepreneurship ecosystem, especially when applying multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The Hierarchical Decision Model (HDM) has been utilized to identify several perspectives and factors grouped under them by the expert's quantification. This research concentrates on underserved communities because that is where the biggest needs and impact can be made to support achieving health equity and universal health coverage. The findings of this research will help public and private healthcare organizations increase ecosystem activity by identifying significant factors and providing multiple solutions and scenarios to meet strategic advantages.
