Medical and Health Services Managers

Significant Points

• Rapid employment growth is projected; job opportunities will be especially good in offices of health practitioners, general medical and surgical hospitals, home health care services, and outpatient care centers.
• Applicants with work experience in health care and strong business and management skills likely will have the best opportunities.
• Earnings are high, but long work hours are common.
• A master's degree is the standard credential for most positions, although a bachelor's degree is adequate for some entry-level positions in smaller facilities and in health information management.
