Overview

To counteract its shortage of health professionals, Maryland has enacted the Health Personnel Shortage Incentive Grant Program to distribute funding to post-secondary institutions in the state. Consequently, those interested in an education or career in medical and health services administration will find plenty of opportunities in this East Coast state. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has predicted faster-than-average growth in the health administration field, and Maryland should be no exception.
