Healthcare Policy and Regulatory Leadership

Be prepared to help solve the healthcare challenges we face today by gaining the skills needed to shape, interpret, implement and evaluate healthcare policies and regulations. Learn the inner workings of our healthcare systems and legislative procedures as you strive to improve quality for communities and organizations. The healthcare policy and regulatory leadership program provides insight into managing change and innovation, while analyzing policies, reform and processes.

You can earn your MS in healthcare management with a concentration in healthcare policy and regulatory leadership entirely online or in the evenings on campus through the University of Denver's University College. The curriculum also aligns with the body of knowledge required to prepare successfully for the National Association of Healthcare Quality (NAHQ) Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality (CPHQ) accreditation examination. Beyond the coursework dedicated to policy, you also can choose electives from other healthcare areas, including analytics and information technology.
