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.

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.
