Healthcare Administrator

Healthcare Administrator

Duties and Responsibilities: Health care administrators, also known as medical and health services managers or health care executives, coordinate the activities of medical organizations ranging from doctors’ offices to hospital departments to health care corporations. They create goals and the strategies for achieving them, and communicate this information to all employees. Because administrators tend to such business concerns as budgeting, scheduling, information management, marketing and internal communication, the medical staff can concentrate on health care. Administrators also ensure their facilities comply with all regulations and may represent their areas of responsibility at board meetings or public hearings.

Salary: $64,821 per year

Education: A bachelor’s to doctorate degree.

Reflection: I would not like to be a Healthcare Administrator because I want to be a Neurosurgeon.
