What's the general consensus on MHA, MPH and MBA in hospital administration?

[coolron90]

I know there are so many threads regarding this matter, but what's the general consensus in actual hospital settings?

Would employers consider MPH in healthcare management the same as MHA or MBA in healthcare management?

Which one would have a better chance of securing a hospital admin job- MPH in HCM from Yale, Columbia or Johns Hopkins or MBA in HCM from top 15~30 MBA programs (Georgetown, WashingtonU. Rice. etc)?

Not too sure actually - might help if you ask some people in the field at your school. There are some combined MPH/MBA programs which might be of interest to you. My personal opinion is that an MPH or MBA is ideal because it gives you some versatility with what you can do, but I haven't had much exposure with the MHA.
