While some of Wiggins’s students go straight to graduate school, most others end up in ambulatory-care management positions. “Some walk into group practice administrator positions right out of our program, especially if they’ve done their internships in that area,” Wiggins says. “But more likely, they’ll start as the office manager or assistant administrator in a group practice, or as a specialized manager, such as financial manager, human resources or information technology specialist in a large group practice.”
The specific job you land — and the specific setting in which you land it — will depend to some degree on where you look geographically, according to Wiggins.
“In the very, very rural intermountain west of Idaho, the kinds of jobs my students get upon graduation are entry-level management in hospitals, maybe an assistant to the department head or mid-level in long-term care, or maybe assistant administrator of a nursing home,” she says.

I remember a discussion on this topic being given by a Miami car accident lawyer. His take on the situation was considerably more bleak than this article has made it out to be.

One advice for people who are seeking a degree in Healthcare Administration. Make sure that you check the University's accreditation otherwisw you might get stuck with a Bachelor's Degree that would not transfer if you decided to pursue your Masters. For example look for University with Regional Accreditation such as Higher Learning Commission

If I would have known to pick a college that was certified by AUPHA I would have definetly have picked one. University of Phoenix is not certified and therefore I have not been given an extensive internship to gain experience in a healthcare setting. Now, I am having a hard time getting into a position at any hospital with no experience but with a bachelor's degree in medical administration. If anyone can lead me on the right path to get my foot in the door it would be much appreciated because I really feel this is the carrier path for me and only need an employer to give me the opportunity to prove myself.
