Need Help Finding MBA in Healthcare Admin/Management

[Duneranger]

"What do healthcare admins do? In my 15 years of being a medical provider, I haven't figured that one out."

I, too, have been a medical provider for many years. Isn't what healthcare administrators do obvious? They sit in an office chatting on degree forums and earning an MBA, all on the company clock while we are busy on the floor and hesitant to talk to them about real issues because they look extremely busy. I hope these MBA programs include a business ethics course.

Hahaha that’s what I figured. Guess I’m the chump who is in the OR for 12+ hours a day while fighting with admin who refuses to give us the drugs and supplies we need.

Good for you!  Will you keep us posted about your experience at Illinois-Springfield?  Always good to hear people’s experience.  I would like to hear about your online experience personally, and I suspect others as well, because that university offers one of the cheapest AACSB accredited master’s degrees in finance.

I am in IL currently, its a pretty minor school here, similar to UMPI in Maine probably. Personally, I would just go to U of I on Coursera....

Can you expand on that as I don't know what that means? Is there a different mba in Healthcare admin possibility?

Yes definitely, I will come back after the first couple of sessions and report back. I do have to take the 2 foundation of business courses as well.

It was a small school that got absorbed into the UI system in the 1990s, similar to UMPI. Yes, UI flagship has a general MBA online. UIC has a MHA online, its the healthcare oriented UI school
