When you think of a hospital or healthcare system, the first
types of career opportunities that come to mind are usually clinical in nature.
The truth is that many of the positions that are available within a healthcare
organization are business and operations focused, and are the same types of
opportunities you would find in other industries such as manufacturing or
service providers. Below are the top five reasons why any college graduate with
a degree in finance should pursue a career in the healthcare industry and why
North Shore-LIJ is the employer of choice.
5. The Healthcare industry is thriving – and not slowing
down!
The healthcare industry is one that is constantly growing
and adapting to environmental changes and new regulations. This results in the
implementation of technological systems, procedures, and a more rigid review of
financial reporting metrics. To provide quality patient care while remaining
competitive and compliant, organizations rely on their finance team to be the
experts behind financial planning, budget, expense, revenue management and
accounting functions.
4. Job Security
Healthcare organizations are finding the need to increase
their workforce to manage a higher volume of work. This workload could be the
direct result of an acquisition of a new facility or the upgrading of systems
and equipment. Students who are interested in finance should pursue their
ambition, but should consider looking into industries other than finance such
as healthcare, which is less vulnerable to layoffs and cutbacks and still
offers a competitive salary and unmatched benefits package.
3. Teamwork is a core value
As a successful finance professional in healthcare, you will
work together internally within a team and with external managers to guarantee
accuracy and integrity of the data that is calculated and to ensure the
organization is operating to maximize revenue and efficiency.
2. Community Benefit
A healthcare organization’s ultimate goal is to provide
quality patient care and service excellence to its patients and community that
it serves. By functioning within the financial operations of an organization
with these goals, you can feel a sense of fulfillment that the work you are
doing is meaningful to others and you are directly affecting the service that
is being granted to the people who need it the most.
