Where Can I Work 

The rapidly aging population in the United States and massive proposed changes in federal health care reform are contributing to the high demand for healthcare management jobs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that employment of medical and health service managers will increase 17% from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations.
