teaches students fundamental concepts, including both financial management and accounting. The book was developed to be used in clinical and health services administration programs, in which students are primarily trained for a career in a provider organization. This edition has been thoroughly updated and at the same time judiciously honed to produce a very focused text. New to this edition are sections on the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the impact of cost structure on risk, a revised approach to variance analysis, and a discussion of the revenue cycle.

Could be greatly improved,

This review is from: Healthcare Finance: An Introduction To Accounting And Financial Management (Hardcover)
The problem with this book is it is written too much like a book and not like a textbook. It is nearly impossible to find the equations that are embedded in the text if you are trying to do a quick reference on a concept. In addition, the index is horrible which leaves me constantly googling concepts that I need for the case studies since you can never find them in the book. Also, I'm not really sure how the book distinguishes itself as "health care" there is little to no health care specifics as far as finance goes. In all reality it isn't a great book especially if it is for your first finance class and you're better off looking up academic journals for a the health care finance perspective.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Straight to the point and practical,
