Healthcare finance is a fascinating discipline, yet students often disregard it as either too theoretical or too mechanical.
Cases in Healthcare Finance brings abstract concepts to life by aligning classroom work with real-world decision making. By working through the cases in this book, students will gain a better appreciation for how finance principles are applied in practice. The book’s 33 cases explore financial management and accounting in a variety of healthcare settings, such as hospitals, clinics, medical practices, home health organizations, and integrated delivery systems. Offering relevant background details and a comprehensive picture of the organization, each case presents a financial management decision or challenge for students to analyze and then recommend an appropriate course of action.
New content in this updated edition includes:
• A case that applies revenue and expense budgeting concepts to a clinic at both start-up and year two of operations
• A technology vendor selection case refocused on basic calculations and decision criteria in capital budgeting
• Recent changes in the healthcare environment incorporated throughout to ensure the cases are current
