Education authority site · Health administration
A healthcare leadership master's can be an MHA, an MHSA, an MS, an MBA with a health concentration, an MPA, or an MPH in health policy. We built MasterOfHealthAdministration.org to put all of them in one set of 452 programs at 312 schools, checked on each school's website, so a reader can see credits, cost, admission tests, residencies, and CAHME accreditation for the degree they are actually considering.
The Problem
Of the 452 programs on the site, 216 carry an MHA-style title, 94 are MS degrees, 126 are MBAs with a health focus, 9 are MPH degrees, and 7 are MPA degrees. They overlap heavily in what they teach and differ in credits, cost, and accreditation. The homepage sorts them by degree type first, so a reader can see what each one is for before comparing schools.
Accreditation is the other trap. CAHME accredits programs, not whole universities, so a school on the list may run other health administration programs the accreditation does not cover. The site marks a program covered only when CAHME's listing and the school's own pages agree it is the accredited one. Tuition follows a similar rule: per-course, per-term, and per-year prices are never multiplied into an estimate, and resident rates are labeled.
The Research Tools
Most MHA students keep working while they study, and many need a CAHME program for hospital roles. The site gives each of those readers its own ranked list.
Online programs
The online list covers 294 programs at 238 schools: 126 with an MHA-style title, 93 healthcare MBAs, 67 MS degrees, and a handful of MPH and MPA degrees. Estimated tuition runs from $8,460 to $116,595, with a median of $25,200 and 36 median credits. The page names the 56 online programs on CAHME's list and explains how practicums work when you study from home.
Compare online MHA programsCAHME-accredited programs
This page lists the 143 programs at 105 schools on CAHME's list: 67 on campus, 56 online, and 36 hybrid. It shows how they differ from the wider field (a median of 45 credits against 39, and a median estimated tuition of $34,545 against $27,000), ranks the lowest-cost accredited programs starting at $10,800, and names the six schools CAHME has flagged on probation.

Link earning starts with the person who would need the resource. The architecture makes that path explicit instead of publishing content first and hunting for a reason to promote it later.
