In today’s evolving healthcare environment, astute financial management is more important than ever to an organization’s economic well-being. Leaders throughout the enterprise—not just financial managers but clinical and operational managers, too—must have a solid grounding in finance to be able to improve care and deliver value.
Gapenski’s Fundamentals of Healthcare Finance provides a comprehensive introduction to the basic principles and applications of healthcare finance that managers use daily. In clear and succinct language, the book provides readers—from students and entry-level managers to more experienced practitioners with newly added management or financial responsibilities—with a detailed overview of finance topics ranging from planning and budgeting to financial operations, capital investment, and risk analysis. Practice scenarios, examples, self-test questions, sidebars on financial practices in healthcare, and running glossary definitions help bring these topics to life.
