I Wish I Knew This Before | HEALTHCARE ADMINISTRATION

[@malcorub]

I have a BS in Healthcare Administration, I had no intention of ever being a " hospital administrator." As stated, its a fantastic degree for someone already working in the healthcare space who wants to learn more about the industry and needs to move up the ladder. My career path in healthcare went Call Center Cust Svc > Claims Analyst > Jr Reports Analyst, > Reports Analyst (this is when I went back to university) > Sr. Business Analyst > Sr Healthcare Economics Consultant > Associate Director of Healthcare Economics. This is all the within the health plan space focusing recently on health data analytics for Medicare Advantage markets. Most of the people I work with have varying degrees from Economics, Statistics, Math to Engineering. This channel makes a very good point about not being to narrowly focused when looking for jobs in the healthcare space.

Hi can you advice if i should finish billing and coding , i find that the outcome isnt worth it with all the work that has to be put in or should i switch to Health Administration which im not sure has a better outcome. But i do have 8years of experience in a medical office and then a huge gap after have kids and now i heading back out there Please advice

[@s.c.h6512]

@@bruh-bg5mm what do you want to do in the long run? Billing is just the certificate, depends on what area you live in. Health Administration is the degree which covers Billing.

[@HB-tc9bi]

@bruh-bg5mm Absolutely finish your billing and coding course. Healthcare Administration won't cover coding courses, and knowing coding will get you more money. With both under your belt, you'll be able to work in many different departments.

@@Rachgib yes so I found a entry level job for a big healthcare company . After 1 year you can explore any roles within the company. So my current job I’m a clinical coordinator I work remotely. Same company. My best advice is to choose a company that have good career advancement opportunities. While my first year working that job I learned a lot of ppl in healthcare have other degrees your not limited at all . Find a good company with advancement and you being an internal employee has a lot of perks.

[@vcmay626]

A person going into healthcare Admin should have several years (at least five years) of previous experience in the medical field because a degree tends to cause a person's head to swell if they walk into a management position without prior experience.

[@scottbarnett3566]

OR you could have several years of management experience in another sector and move into the health sector. Not one size fits all

[@sajiddawar000]

I don't have administration experience in hospital but have more than 10 years experience as clerk and operator, so can i perform good as i know more things than a degree holder having no experience?

[@Ms1Deviouskiller]

LOL 8:30-8:36 is so hilarious and relatable! You're so funny! Also, I see that you noted obtaining healthcare administration experience is something one should work on during undergrad and grad school. As an undergrad, I would love it if you could make a separate video discussing entry level positions a college student can pursue to fulfil that goal? Is medical scribing a good job to have as an undergrad health admin major if you are thinking about managing an outpatient medical practice when you graduate? What is the experience required for that?

[@professorashley]

Medical scribing is great to do as an undergrad. It will help give you medical field experience and give that you will become so familiar with not just medical terminology, but actual medical procedures, it will put you in a good position for management later on. That being said, I believe you will have some more stepping stones in between scribing and management. I would advise you be on the look out for a good "manager mentor" while you're scribbing. That would give you some invaluable guidance to make it to management b the time you graduate.

[@therealryann5681]

So true. Had mostly the exact same experience. Got my MBA in healthcare administration with limited experience. Had to work multiple jobs at the bottom before making it to where I am right now, which is middle management. Still working to get to an executive level role. My whole experience has been mostly in the hospital. Other points that are important in this field is that it is extremely difficult to break into! So finding and in/mentor is definitely important. Also, it is more preferred to hire clinicians such as nurses into administration roles because having clinical knowledge is viewed as more valuable than someone that does not. Finally, this is not a field for someone that cares about making money, if that’s your main goal than you should consider a different field. I could go on and on, but I’m sure you can relate.

[@Fourwindsofsuccess]

It’s a very difficult field. This is what most aren’t honest about at all and have people thinking they’re going to be making good money and let’s not get started on the work culture of these facilities or hospitals or offices. Healthcare tends to be toxic but all careers have a pros and cons, but I noticed once I got involved I’ve gotten depressed and I even have to file a eeoc lawsuit that I one recently against a healthcare company where I was a medical billing analyst. It’s crazy. That’s why I’m going to do something I like but also money is a major thing for me at this point because my goals aren’t to be working a 9-5pm for years to come.

[@mynameisscanty]

You should be looking for any position at either a doctors office, hospital, or facility such as an ambulatory surgical center. The field of healthcare really relies on job experience, so even if you have a masters in healthcare administration, they'll want to see your work experience. There's a lot that you can learn from being in the field that you will not learn in the classroom. If you can, try to get a billing position because I feel like that's the most versatile entry-level position and you'll learn the importance and reasoning behind the tasks that people do at the check-in and check-out desks. However, if you know absolutely nothing about healthcare, then get a receptionist or front desk position and learn the basic processes behind health care.
