You should acknowledge that there are other models, or means to study the environment in which healthcare systems can operate, but you should strive to be as persuasive as possible that the specific concepts and ope-rationalizations you have reviewed are exciting research avenues and that they are potentially breakthrough areas in the understanding of optimal healthcare delivery systems.
