technology doctorsIn times like COVID-19, the majority of nations are facing an economic meltdown, and their financial systems are on the verge of collapse. The pandemic has not only affected various sectors of the economy, but it has also affected millions of lives globally. In these tumultuous times, the healthcare industry is the perhaps sole industry experiencing a boom.

The Healthcare system is a combination of hospital systems, patient care, healthcare providers, insurance, and legalities. Without the necessary health care system, a country will fail to survive. A nation always needs a sound healthcare system to take care of its people. Without healthy people, a state cannot run on its own.

There two types of professionals in healthcare are:

  • The ones responsible for providing clinical care, physicians, lab technicians, and nurses come under this category.
  • The experts who handle the business prospects of healthcare; these include CEO, operations administrators, and finance executives.

You should go for an MBA in healthcare if you have an interest in the latter category. The degree trains the students to build up such skills, which help them in becoming leaders in diverse industries and sectors. There are various fields of specialization in MBA, but to have a stable career, one needs to select wisely among these fields. The main aim of an MBA in healthcare management is that it allows individuals to practice their managerial and administrative skills in this sector.

Following are some of the significant benefits of an MBA in healthcare:

Multiple Career Paths

There has been an evident growth in healthcare employment globally. According to the statistics of BLS, healthcare employment will grow by about 14% from the year 2018-2028. That shows there would be 1.9 million new jobs. The principal reason for this expected growth is the aging population, which demands more healthcare services. That also predicts that there would undoubtedly be massive growth in management and executive-level jobs in healthcare in upcoming years. Today, the healthcare industry is not only restricted to health practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, but it also requires management that meets the demands of the patients and helps in keeping the cost down.

Securing an MBA degree will help an individual to advance his career in healthcare as a leader. The courses in MBA in healthcare will train students to learn how to manage accounts, finance, knowledge about the consumption of health, and HR management. They will also learn about ethics and marketing strategies in the healthcare sector.

Healthcare MBA qualifies an individual to work in different settings within the healthcare sector, such as hospitals, doctors’ offices, nursing homes, pharmaceutical firms, insurance businesses, or in consulting companies.

Transferable Skills

An individual can practice the following four careers after earning a degree of MBA in healthcare: medical services provider, healthcare facilities management, insurance firms, and pharmaceuticals and equipment suppliers. Every one of these industries has plenty of jobs.

However, one of the best careers to pursue is the one that has the flexibility to switch to another field whenever desired. Having a degree in MBA helps in improving the skills to deal with people and teams efficiently. This program enhances the ability to gain insights into people’s viewpoints and how to plan strategies at the workplace. An MBA in healthcare helps an individual to change their fields of employment at any time they desire. The courses students study in healthcare MBA primarily targets on fundamentals of business. Their skills and knowledge are transferable. Hence, this degree can allow one to adapt to work in marketing, finance, Human Resources department, or any other industry they wish to work. One more advantage of completing an MBA in health care is that it polishes the skill set, such as communication, leadership, and team working skills.

Highly Paid Profession

An MBA in healthcare provides one with the best career growth and earning potential because of its high demand. Not only the USA is noticing the exponential growth of this field, but an MBA in healthcare is famous all over the world. The Bureau of Labor Statistics discloses that the average income of the healthcare administrator is $84,270, and it will increase by 22 percent by 2020. The factors that affect the salary of healthcare managers include the location of employment (the urban areas managers earn more than the rural areas), the faculty size, individual experience in the field, and the size of an organization.

The choice of a career in healthcare employment has a significant role in the salaries of an individual. After completing an MBA in healthcare, these professionals can step up as a CEO for any hospital, CFO, administrators, and managers. The median salary of a hospital CEO, CFO, and administrator is around $110, 00. Whereas the earnings for Pharmaceutical Product Manager and a Medical Practitioner Manager range from $81,000 to $92,000. That proves that an MBA in healthcare is a highly paid career.

Opportunities In International Markets

Moreover, this degree gives opportunities for students to become eligible for organizations that are hiring for overseas posts. The international market for healthcare management is competitive. However, a degree in this field can provide you with a vast range of opportunities to work with different potential employers. It will also enhance your ability to work with diverse cultures, people, and environments. Thus, an individual can improve his management and leadership qualities that will help him succeed in his career.

Making A Difference

Healthcare executives manage and handle the quality and cost of health organizations. In contrast to other jobs in any industry, healthcare executives can make an impact on society as well as on individual life. The decisions one makes as an administrator in the healthcare affects many people that rely on the excellent quality of the health system. The responsibility of healthcare managers is not only to make policies, arrange resources, but they also can affect the daily lives of an individual.

Conclusion

A degree in MBA healthcare can provide numerous benefits like an endorsement to grow in roles of leadership and a potential salary. It also acts as an entrant in the evolving and progressing industry. The salary of a healthcare executive usually amounts to six figures. There are multiple job opportunities for MBA healthcare. If your goal is to become a top-level executive in the hospital, then you should opt for a degree in healthcare MBA. These professionals are also able to work with profit or non-profit institutions as managers, directors, and administrators. Hopefully, with the help of the benefits mentioned above, you will choose the most suitable degree for your career.
