Have you checked <a href="http://www.gradschools.com/listings/menus/admin_health_menu.html" target="_blank">gradschools.com</a>?
In general, I would look for a program that is accredited by the <a href="http://www.acehsa.org/" target="_blank">Accrediting Commission on Education for Health Services Administration</a> (ACEHSA). There's a list of these programs on that website. While most accredited programs grant the M.H.A., there are also notable M.B.A. programs with accredited specializations in healthcare management, for example Wharton (U.Penn), Kellogg (Northwestern), and Fuqua (Duke). Of the non-business school programs, which are often based within Schools of Public Health, U.Michigan's and Wash. U's programs are well-respected. Other good programs to consider would be Tulane, Hopkins School of Public Health (M.H.S. in Health Finance and Management, which I did), and UNC-Chapel Hill. As you probably know, M.H.A. programs, unlike M.P.H programs, are almost all two years long. Most require either the GRE or GMAT for application and will not accept MCAT or LSAT scores. Hope this helps.
