Putting Business and Healthcare Together?

<p>What careers are there that you can merge the two together?</p>

<p>Healthcare consulting. Biotech financing. Hospital administration. Medicare research. Health insurance. Venture capital in medical device fields. Leveraged buyouts of hospital systems (see: Bain Capital and HCA). Pharmaceutical accounting/finance/management/marketing/consulting.</p>

<p>This is just the tip of the iceberg, I'm sure. It's all I could come up with in twenty seconds, though.</p>

<p>Thanks...But are there any jobs that arent really administrative? (if that makes sense)</p>

<p>Of all the jobs above, only two strike me as as administrative. (Hospital administration, pharmaceutical accounting.)</p>

<p>What do you mean by administrative?</p>

<p>I don't really know, but what I'm asking is can you be a nurse and have a business degree? Will it benefit anything? (Career-wise)</p>

<p>I can't think of what it would be useful for. You certainly COULD obtain both degrees.</p>

<p>Nursing and business degrees could be useful for for nursing administration, marketing health care products, HMO management, directing home health care services or other health services. Former nurses fill the ranks of medical sales reps and all health care management.</p>

<p>I stand quite corrected.</p>
