Healthcare Management Technology

Are you interested in the business side of healthcare? Do you also have an interest in health services? Then healthcare management technology is the program for you!

The healthcare management technology program can greatly expand your employment opportunities in this exciting, innovative field. This program teaches strong skills in organization, leadership, quality assurance, and information technology management. Coursework prepares students to deal with the complex demands of large systems such as Medicaid and medical billing and coding.

Healthcare managers or administrators plan, direct, and coordinate medical and health services. They may manage an entire facility, a specific clinical area or department, or a medical practice for a group of physicians. Medical and health services managers must adapt to changes in healthcare laws, regulations, and technology.

Healthcare managers work in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and government agencies.

The employment of healthcare managers is expected to grow at a rate of 16 percent between 2018 and 2028, much faster than the average for all occupations.

As the large baby-boom population ages and people remain active later in life, there should be increased demand for healthcare services.
