This comprehensive textbook, Accounting Fundamentals for Health Care Management, is the perfect resource for students who are just starting out in financial accounting for health care. Authored by Steven A. Finkler, David M. Ward, and Thad Calabrese, this book aims to provide healthcare managers with a solid and reliable foundation in financial accounting skills that are essential for success in healthcare settings.
