Yay more online healthcare admin degrees unis pumping out "leaders" without a clue!

The minimum requirements for a Master of Healthcare Administration degree are:

24 semester hours applicable to the degree must be completed at Amberton University.
36 semester hours for a degree, and
A minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 is required.

It's crazy how even basic healthcare experience isn't a requirement.

I don’t think you can get a job as a healthcare administrator without healthcare experience anyways…unless we’re counting insurance companies as part of the healthcare industry
