Regis University Online Graduate Degrees: MBA
The Regis MBA specialization in Health Care Management provides students a solid understanding of business and related topics such as health care finance, policy, marketing, and information management. The Health Care Management specialization appeals to professionals in the health care field interested in moving into management or administrative functions in public or private healthcare organizations. Skills such as leadership, management, critical thinking, strategy development and economics are an integral part of the program.
Currently, health care in the U.S. is in an unprecedented state of flux. As the health care industry continues to change and evolve, the principles of business that are addressed in the Regis MBA Health Care specialization will become increasingly more important for physicians, nurses, healthcare administrators, pharmacists, and other medical professionals. In addition, businesses today face a number of challenges that health care organizations also have to deal with, making the Health Care Management specialization one that will equip graduates with important business skills.
"A growing number of physicians and health care practitioners have discovered that their medical education may not have prepared them completely for professional challenges. Issues of managed care, budgets, employment agreements, and contracts have become part of practicing medicine for many health care practitioners."
