Since the inauguration of my health care career at Keck Medicine of USC, I knew there would be no other academic institution that could better prepare me to excel at becoming a leader amongst the health care community. I have inquired with multiple USC hospital employees about the EMHA program, and all have spoken with high regards that USC offers an excellent healthcare administration master’s degree. I hope to be challenged intellectually while developing leadership skills necessary to mature into a successful leader. My work experience has prepared me to undertake the challenges that would be associated with remaining a full time employee at USC while pursuing an Executive Master of Health Administration.

Health care economics involves making plenty of choices. Individuals, groups, businesses, and organizations choose how to use resources . Economics and health care are linked, because health care professionals apply economics in their everyday professional activities. They are able to do this through resource allocation. Any health care organization has to plan out how they will use their resources to their advantage. Health care economics are able to incorporate terms like cost, quality, and resources. In this paper, I will compare these terms as they relate to health care economics. In this paper, I will also explain how they

While there is still much to learn about financial operation of a health organization, I feel that I have better understand of most of the fundamental principles that apply to a broad spectrum of businesses. Upon reflection this understanding of financial principles also reinforces the need to have a fundamental base of knowledge, but simultaneously services to illustrate the vast body of information that there still is to learn. The allied health community assignments were useful in a general sense, in that they allowed a student to apply some of the concepts that they have learned. This “hands on” approach was helpful because it added context to the lectures and readings. As an exercising in doing the work of an administrator, the allied health community exercises required the student to research additional information about the topics assigned and this allowed me to further mentally cement the concepts.

Health care administration is defined as the process through which a country, region, or organization mobilizes health care resources. The end goal of health care administration/management is to effectively delegate a limited set of resources (money, manpower, hours) to create an optimal result (positive health outcomes). While the broadest goal is singular across all regimes, the means to access them are divergent. In some countries, such as the United States, market based models have commercialized health care (Woolhandler, 2003). Like any other product, health care in America is to be bought and sold on the open market. While there were alternative options available for the poor and elderly (Medicaid/Medicare), health care access was determined purely by market processes (Woolhandler, 2003).

The university is lacking superior resources that would adequately prepare graduate students of this field and facilitate their success on the job market. The College of Nursing & Health Sciences is missing out on an opportunity to expand graduate student enrollment. The university board could possibly react as if this matter is not significant. However, it is of grand significance that FIU offers a Master's degree in Health Services Administration, and the following benefits of a new approach will explain why.

Against a background of increasing demands on limited resources, health economics is exerting an influence on decision making at all levels of health care. Health economics seeks to facilitate decision making by offering an explicit decision making framework based on the principle of efficiency. It is not the only consideration but it is an important one and practitioners will need to have an understanding of its basic principles and how it can impact on clinical decision making.

Around the globe, there are countless health care problems such as, malnutrition, HIV/AIDS, heart disease, cancer, and violence, and there is no one method or technique that will bring relief to all the afflicted. Health care workers must first identify the root causes of the problems before they can properly find solutions, interventions, and preventions. Therefore, it is essential that health care administration students learn how to analyze the nature and causes of major healthcare problems.

Decision making is an important aspect of health care today and can be directly affected by both determinants of health and health care reform. Although most will argue that the ultimate goal is to obtain the best possible care that will ensure the health and well-being of ourselves and our loved ones, we must all face the reality that determinants and healthcare reform will play a major part in the decisions we make. Health care decisions will have to be made based on a number of factors, such as financial situation, educational level as well as social status and support. These factors

Healthcare management is a great, complex, and dynamic field. Like any business, healthcare requires exceptional administration to keeps its operations effective and smooth. Notably, the healthcare field is constantly growing, calling for the expertise of skilled administrators with the capacity to manage hospitals. Since my childhood, I have enjoyed solving problems, helping people, caring about the community and individuals, and having an excellent compensation and growth opportunities.

Changing factors such as aging populations and new technologies becoming available are increasing expectations from people throughout the world, and decision makers must make rational choices to maximise benefits to population health whilst working with limited resources. Yothasamut et al (2009) summarise this by observing that "health care resources in every setting are always constrained, while unlimited demand is observed". The 'best' choices in the context of economics are the ones which maximise utility (individual satisfaction through consumption of goods) and welfare, the sum utility experienced by all individuals in society. Decision makers often have to seek satisfactory rather than optimal solutions, also known as working with 'bounded rationality' (Simon 1957 in Williams et al 2008), as it is important to pursue both efficiency and equity in the funding of health care. Therefore, it may be unsuitable to fund the most cost effective option if it sacrifices the equal distribution of benefits. Research in health economics can take a normative or positive approach and this reflects the balance needed between cost control and equity when making economic decisions. Positive economic research and analysis is concerned with 'how things are' and seeks to explain economic phenomena, whilst normative economic research and analysis is concerned with 'how things ought to be' and relies on value
