Hey everyone- I need advice on pivoting from an MCO to hospitals. I am a young healthcare professional with an MHA. Prior to graduating, I had a solid year experience interning as an administrative consultant in a hospital and I loved the environment. However when the pandemic hit, I ended up in managed care/insurance side. I would like to step into an administrator or practice manager but Im afraid my lack of direct healthcare setting experience I would have to take a low paying role. Any tips?

I don't necessarily think you'd need to take a low paying role but you'd have to be really explicit in connecting your experience to the role. I would consider applying at a fw different hospitals and see what kind of response you get

*continued* I have 2 years post-grad experience working in both an operations manager role and as a project manager. I feel I definitely have translational skills but I do not have physician practice experience. I currently WFH and make close to $90k. I am very extroverted and do not like the isolation of WFH hence why I would like to go back. Plus, my current work is not aligned with my interest in healthcare (this job is much more business/transactional related). I’m wondering if there is any way I can go back to hospitals without sacrificing a huge pay cut?

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.
