Healthcare Admin not about really working in a hospital. 90 percent of Healthcare work is done outside the hospital.This degree will help you get a leg up on the Revenue Cycle side. Leadership roles at Cigna, UHC, Blue Cross, CVS etc. If you get a degree in Healthcare Admin focus on the Corporate revenue side and not working in a hospital.
95% of hospital management roles require you to have a BSN / imaging / cath lab licensure. BSHA would only qualify you to work in support departments IE: Sterile processing, materials management, dietary, EVS, facilities that kind of stuff. There is alot more opportunity outside the hospital setting. What OP mentioned or clinic / practice management.
Thank you so much for sharing, this video was very informative! I didn't even know that I shouldn't call it Healthcare management instead Healthcare Administration. I'm planning to do my Degree in Healthcare Administration this year at Southern New Hampshire University.
I have an allied health degree and a clinical masters and work in health management. The IDEAL path is to have a nursing degree. Nurses have the most opportunity.
You seem to be confusing clinical management and non clinical HA jobs. If you go for a clinical manager job, RN + charge experience is the core requirement. Even IF you have a HA degree, you will not qualify for clinical riles unless you also have an RN /BSN licensure.
I can see where you might think nursing is required for this job. I work at a major university hospital. Nursing and clinical management is not the same as healthcare administration. HA roles are the administrative, departmental, educational side of the hospital. Nurses as a rule do not fill these roles. BS in healthcare administration is usually hired as an administrative role. Masters (MHA) would almost always be required to move into management. THIS is a business degree, NOT a clinical leadership degree. If you want to be a nursing leader I would recommend getting a masters in nursing. Please don’t think this is not a good and informative video. There just seems to be some confusion regarding the direction this role might go in a hospital setting.
The classes are all exactly the same, this degree is only changing in name. New name kicked in march 15th. Im a current student. The healthcare classes are horrible ( the course layout) they are supposd to update the healthcare class courses this spring.
@sonnydawk3273 its doable just how the courses are laid out. They make it harder than it needs to be. The business courses are good. If you have a healthcare background, it will be easier.
So this bachelor degree will read “B.S. Healthcare Administration” and not “B.S. Business Administration Healthcare Administration” on the degree title??
The old title was bachelor of Business administration - healthcare management. New is; Bachelor of science in healthcare administration. Definitely a more recognized degree name.
You should be fine, even though the classes in the old degree track were poorly designed, your experience and general healthcare knowledge will be very helpful.

Great video. I ended up starting my career first and now going for the degree. I've been a director solely based on experience.

MBA vs MHA vs M in nursing really just depends on what you're trying to do in your career. All have their strength and weaknesses.

Horrible as in hard? I’m about to enroll for this degree

hey how can I email you?
@nalvo2768 just ask me here.
What about its masters
Would this be better than just getting business management? Because it’s focused on one specific field
If you want to work in Healthcare I’d say yes.
@@alexsheppe Hey Alex I need to know if you have any information on Analytical Methods of Healthcare Leaders - D514
did you do the MHA ?
So this bachelor degree will read “B.S. Healthcare Administration” and not “B.S. Business Administration Healthcare Administration” on the degree title??
Correct. Which is better IMO
The old title was bachelor of Business administration - healthcare management.
New is;
Bachelor of science in healthcare administration. Definitely a more recognized degree name.
i mean is this the master's degree that you are talking about or is this the bachelor's level?
Bachelors
I’ve worked on clinical side for 12+ years and just applied to this degree how hard is this actually?
You should be fine, even though the classes in the old degree track were poorly designed, your experience and general healthcare knowledge will be very helpful.
Thank You
