Employment for medical and health services managers is expected to grow much faster than the average for all careers through 2028, according to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). The DOL reports that “as the large baby-boom population ages and people remain active later in life, there should be increased demand for healthcare services. This means greater needs for physicians and other healthcare workers, medical procedures, and healthcare facilities, and therefore greater needs for managers who organize and manage medical information and healthcare staff. There should also be increased demand for nursing care facility administrators as the population grows older. Demand in medical group practice management is projected to grow as medical group practices become larger and more complex. In addition, widespread use of electronic health records will continue to create demand for managers with knowledge of health information technology and informatics systems.” Demand will also increase in the offices of health practitioners, as services that were formerly provided in hospitals are shifted to these settings.
