5 out of 5 stars Financial Management of Healthcare Organizations   May 16, 2003
8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This text proved an invaluable guide to the subject of hospital finances. This was a subject I was not particularly interested in, and the book surprised me. It is readable and clear. The logic flows smoothly. There are plenty of examples, illustrating assorted principles. After reading several books on the topic of hospital finances, this one stands out for its clarity.

A very comprehensive and informative book, even though the examples are for the US it can be used and applied to other countries and systems. Gives a good grounding for financial understanding of healthcare entities. Highly recommend it to anyone looking interested in financial managment of health care organizations

All essential topics in financial management and definations of professional terms can be found in this nice book. To strengthen the readers' knowledge on financial management, the authors provided many examples for discussion and explanation; and also asked some key questions at the end of each Chapter. So interesting!! This textook is very useful for new learners of health care financial management.
