Has anyone left healthcare consulting to pursue a MPH/MHA? Did you feel pressured to go back into healthcare consulting after?

If so, why? If not, what did you pursue instead?

I worked in a hospital system - now back in consulting, mainly due to family and relocation reasons.

Already had mph before joining consulting. What is the reason you want to do it? Money? Work IN hospital hospital system? You need to identify that first. Having an MPH/MHA will not give you an edge if money is the main reason

I don’t see the need to leave consulting for MHA unless you are done with consulting and headed to industry.

I went from MHA to consulting

Is there a general expectation that a Partner has an MBA?

I doubt it's required at most firms but I'm a pretty senior staff and when I speak with Partners, they seem to speak with an MBA level of business knowledge which extends past their technical skillset.

I realize that's what makes them good Partners but it makes me wonder if I realistically need to get an MBA to keep growing and hit Partner.
