Master of Business Administration - Healthcare Administration

With the surge of an aging population, demand for healthcare services is expected to grow dramatically over the next 10 years. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) expanded access and increased regulatory requirements for the entire healthcare industry. These factors created a critical need for both healthcare providers and talented healthcare administrators. The Jabs MBA with a concentration in healthcare administration prepares graduates to help meet this demand through a business degree designed to equip a new generation of healthcare leaders with the knowledge and skills to manage and lead in an increasingly complex operational and regulatory environment. This program is designed for healthcare professionals who desire to advance their administrative and leadership careers. Medical and health services providers, supervisors, managers, assistant department directors or those who wish to enter the medical management field are ideal candidates for this program. MBA healthcare administration students benefit from the unique partnership between the CBU College of Health Science and the Jabs School of Business. The curriculum focuses on core business foundations and is enhanced with industry specific knowledge that explores U.S. healthcare policy, reimbursement and budgeting, cost drivers, ethical decision making, regulatory requirements, healthcare justice and population health issues. Healthcare administration concentration students are eligible to attend an global business trip for an additional fee. Please contact the School of Business for more information.
