Healthcare administration

The pathSkills

This work runs the operations behind healthcare — hospitals, insurer operations, and health-tech services — instead of working with medicines directly. You reach it by adding a healthcare- or hospital-management MBA to a B.Pharm. You swap clinical and product work for operations, quality, and service profit and loss. Demand is steady from growing hospital chains and insurers. A pharmacy degree is useful but unusual here. Most people come from clinical or general-management backgrounds.
