Health care industry is a huge growing industry, the percentage of people aging in America is increasing, According to The New York Times In 2010, there were 40 million people age 65 and over in the United States, accounting for 13 percent of the total population. The older population in 2030 is projected to be twice as large as in 2000, growing from 35 million to 72 million and representing nearly 20 percent of the total U.S. population. The demand for medical care is expected to increase in the near future, so in order to meet this demand there is need for more people to enter into the field of healthcare.

It has only been within the last five years that health information management (HIM) has experienced exponential changes, due to the healthcare reform. The electronic health record (EHR) is connected to health information exchanges and other systems of interoperability. The timely completion of charts, coding and release of information (ROI) has become much more efficient with the electronic record. Traditional HIM functions will just be transformed and will always be an integral part of successful patient care. Professionals must be flexible and willing to adapt and even generate change. As Health Information Technology continues to evolve, so will the roles

The Marylhurst Healthcare MBA program and 26 years of work experience in the healthcare industry will enable me to help others find and receive affordable quality healthcare. Even though, we have Obama Care people are complaining that they cannot receive quality medical care at affordable prices. In some cases, they are going without medical treatment because they cannot afford the co-pays. In addition, some people want to obtain natural healthcare and most insurance companies will not cover important naturopathy testing. It is this that has inspired me to learning the business aspect of running a hospital and using this knowledge to become a healthcare advocate.

Even though MPH graduates are well educated in their field they lack the required skills for managerial positions. For example, after conducting several surveys, public health practitioners and educational institutes indicated that there is a gap between what is being taught and the skills needed to excel at the workplace. An MPH graduate expects to be competent in the areas of personnel and fiscal management duties. However, new graduates are not fully developed or trained in these areas while pursuing studies (Hemans-Henry, Blake, Parton, Koppaka & Greene, 2016). Therefore, a survey conducted by hiring managers has suggested that one way to address the issue is to implement supplemental employment-based training which gives students an opportunity to reinforce their education. Hence, MPH graduates will be able to acquire new knowledge and adapt skills such as quantitative data analysis, management, and financial control which are useful for the public health workforce (Hemans-Henry et al., 2016). The authors Yi et al. (2016) also agree that the medical education is not sufficient for health care workers because it lacks adequate development for students and is based solely on knowledge. Especially public health workers who practice in rural areas and works independently while learning about various health conditions. Hence, training is crucial so

My goal is to have a career in health care management. While researching careers, I discovered health care management. I choose health care management as my career option for two reasons. I’m looking for a career where I can do what I passionate about and impact lives. These are important factor in my career choice. Health care management met my two requirements and at that point I knew this was the career for me. I firmly believe that any career I pursue should be one that I’m passionate about. One of my passions is helping others. Health care managers help patients just as much as doctors, nurses and other clinical professionals. For me it’s very imperative that I find a career were I would have impact the lives of others. This would ensure that I’m fulfilling one of my purposes in life. I 'm ready to experience the emotional and intellectual rewards my MBA will

I have gained a lot of clinical experience after my graduation as well as specialized further in field of physiotherapy, but at this point it has become indispensable for me to gain leadership and management skills to progress further in my career and to become a resourceful person to the concerned organization. It isn’t an easy task for someone from a purely clinical background to be able to introduce change in an organization at any level without having developed the knowledge and skills needed for it. I want to be able to effectively evaluate health care outcomes and identify any social or economic determinants affecting it as I understand it’s a challenging task to provide effective health care with smooth managerial
