This healthcare finance ebook provides an introduction to essential concepts of financial and accounting management. By presenting clear explanations, practical examples, and realistic practice problems, it prepares future healthcare managers to make sound financial decisions for their organizations. The latest edition, Healthcare Finance: An Introduction to Accounting and Financial Management, 6th Edition, (PDF) has been comprehensively updated with a particular focus on the unique marketplace for healthcare services. It also includes examples from various settings such as medical practices, clinics, nursing homes, home health agencies, and managed care organizations.
The newest edition features several content updates, including improved coverage of revenue cycle, a more user-friendly layout, and additional end-of-chapter practice problems. It also introduces time-driven activity-based costing, a patient-level costing method. Furthermore, it covers three service-line costing methods: relative value unit, cost-to-charge ratio, and activity-based costing. This edition provides revised financial accounting formats in line with the latest guidance from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and an increased discussion of health insurance, reimbursement methodologies, and healthcare reform.
The managerial accounting material has been reorganized to follow a more logical progression of concepts and highlight the level of analysis (organization, department, service) instead of techniques. Online college student resources include a chapter on lease financing and business valuation (previously included in the ebook) and a chapter on distributions to owners (dividends, bonuses, and repurchases).
Please note that the product only includes the ebook, Healthcare Finance: An Introduction to Accounting and Financial Management, 6th Edition in PDF format, without any access codes. A newer edition is also available, and related ebooks are listed below.
