Rocky Vista Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine + Regis Master of Science in Health Services Administration

Management and leadership positions within hospitals, clinics, private practices, pharmaceutical companies and managed care organizations increasingly require the medical knowledge obtained through a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree combined with relevant management, administrative and business knowledge obtained through an M.S. in Health Services Administration degree.

What is the M.S. in Health Services Administration (MS-HSA)?

The Regis M.S. in Health Services Administration is much like an MBA, but specialized for the complexities of health care. Courses in strategy, finance, organizational ethics, operations, leadership, research and technology management will augment your medical knowledge and provide you with a deeper understanding of the entire health care landscape.
