Cases in Healthcare Finance, 7th Edition

By George H. Pink PhD, Paula H. Song PhD 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.
