HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT (AAS)

Did you know that there’s a true business side to our healthcare system with a whole team of professionals working behind the scenes to make sure our providers are able to deliver quality healthcare services? Healthcare Management encompasses the business of the healthcare field, and it involves everything from budgeting to quality improvement, project planning, performance assessment, and even marketing. Every day, healthcare managers work directly with medical professionals to facilitate the daily operations of their organization and ensure health systems have what they need to run efficiently every day.
