MBA - Healthcare Administration Specialization
Why offer Healthcare Administration in an MBA program?
The healthcare sector of the U.S. economy now accounts for more than 15 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), and healthcare administrators are integral to the successful management of medical organizations, including hospitals, nursing homes, hospice facilities, insurance companies, provider networks and government policy organizations. Today's healthcare administrators are expected to examine business from multiple perspectives, drawn from a cross-section of multidisciplinary expertise. At this time, Baylor's healthcare specialization in the MBA program is centered on U.S. healthcare organizations.
