About this book

Instructor Resources: Test bank, PowerPoint slides, answer guides for the in-book discussion questions and case, and a transition guide to the new edition.

Financial management challenges are not confined to the CFO's office. Any manager in today's increasingly complex healthcare environment must have a solid grasp of finance fundamentals, and this book provides them.

In straightforward language aimed at students and managers outside of finance, Introduction to the Financial Management of Healthcare Organizations covers a full range of topics.

The first four sections—Financial Management, Operating Revenue, Working Capital, and Resource Allocation—start with core financial concepts, then delve into issues unique to the healthcare setting. Highlights include the tax status of healthcare organizations, third-party payers and payment methodologies, cost accounting and analysis, rate setting, strategic financial planning, and capital budgeting.

A final section on healthcare reform analyzes important trends that will affect healthcare organizations in the future.

New to this edition:

Readers of this book will not only learn the fundamentals of financial management but also gain experience in applying them. Mini-cases, practice problems, and self-quizzes throughout reinforce essential concepts, and a comprehensive case at the end brings the concepts to life.
