About Internet Citations
Healthcare Organizations [Journal of Financial Management Strategies], makes use of “Uniform Resource Locators” - URLs - to direct subscribers to useful web [internet] sites with additional references. However, host entities frequently reorganize and update sites, so URLs can change rapidly. And, while home page sites rarely change, more specific pages within the site often do. All internet citations for this journal are therefore “live” when published, but we cannot guarantee how long they will remain so, despite our best efforts to keep them current.
