Finding the Best Health & Medical Administrative Services Master's Degree School for You

With 89,359 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, health and medical administrative services is the #2 most popular major in the United States.

It's not easy to decide which healthcare program to enroll in when you have so many options available. You can choose a traditional brick and mortar school, or with the growth of online education, you can attend a school half-way across the country without even leaving your house. Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.

The Best Value Health/Medical Admin Services Master's Degree Schools ranking is one of many tools that Healthcare Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 346 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value master's degree programs for health and medical administrative services students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
