Looking for a specific
Health Care Administration Degree?

For health care professionals, a degree in health care administration can mean a climb up the corporate ladder. Health care administrators operate in small and large facilities, from a small physician's office to a large hospital. Administrators work in all areas of medical facilities, from human resources to the finance department. They are human resource managers, finance managers, CEOs, nurse administrators, and more.

The duties of a health care administrator range widely with his or her job title and the size of the facility he or she works in. Health care administrators in a small facility may help with patient intake, accounts payable and receivable, and office finances. In a larger facility, health care administrators are needed to run everything from employee benefits plans to scheduling nurses' shifts. Health care administrators use their background in healthcare and a degree in health care administration to ensure their medical facility runs smoothly and efficiently.

The demand for health care administrators is expected to grow over the next seven years. The salary of a health care administrator varies with his or her position. A human resources manager averaged $87,580 per year in 2004, while a CEO made $139,920, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Nurse administrators averaged $75,140 per year in 2004.
