Description

Essentials of Applied Quantitative Methods for Health Services Management shows students how to use statistics in all aspects of health care administration. Offering careful, step-by-step instructions for calculations using Microsoft Excel, this hands-on resource begins with basic foundational competencies in statistics, and then walks the reader through forecasting, designing and analyzing systems, and project analysis. The text stresses the application of concepts, models, and techniques and provides problems involving all of the methods. It is intended to build a student management and planning tools repertoire. Ideal for junior and seniors in baccalaureate level health administration programs as well as first year graduate students in non-MBA health administration programs, this book requires limited previous knowledge of statistics; its mathematical dimension is equal to basic high school algebra.
