If you want to stay in healthcare consulting for the long term, I’d say MBA or MPH (Healthcare Management - curriculum includes finance, accounting, mgmt courses). If you want to go into healthcare administration, then MBA or MHA. I don’t agree with the comment above that MHA sounds like BS. I’ve met plenty CEOs of hospitals and healthcare organizations that have a MHA. It just all depends on your career goals.

MBA at Top 15 unless your undergrad was even better>>. MHA just sounds like BS

What is your end goal? MPH’s are great for public sector facing, I work for a large healthcare organization and I see a lot of MHAs or MBAs….the MBAs tend to be in more finance driven roles, but again it depends on your end goal

I would always go MBA over MHA. MHA basically pigeon-holes you into healthcare. An MBA gives you some more transferrable knowledge so you can more easily pivot later should you choose to.
