Healthcare Finance and Budgeting looks at how money moves through healthcare organizations and how those organizations plan, track, and report their finances. It covers the basics of accounting, budgeting, revenue, costs, payer systems, and the rules that affect financial decisions in hospitals, clinics, and other health settings.
Healthcare Finance and Budgeting (Health 301) is a 3-credit course with video-based instruction, quizzes, assignments, attendance, and a final exam. The grade is split 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam, so students need to keep up with the course work throughout the term. When the final transcript is issued, Newlane University recognizes the course as Elective credit, which means it can be applied toward total credit hours and elective requirements in a Newlane degree plan.
The course gives students a working understanding of how healthcare organizations handle money, reports, budgets, and financial rules, which is useful in any setting where financial decisions affect operations. At Newlane, that credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy by filling elective space while the student builds broader knowledge. For students using Newlane’s transfer structure, that can help reduce the number of credits they still need to complete, up to the 90-credit transfer limit.
After you finish the course, the transcript is sent for transfer review and Newlane University applies the course as Elective credit. That means the credit counts in the degree plan as an elective rather than as a required course in a specific subject area. Because Newlane allows up to 90 transfer credits, this course can help students move closer to completion while staying within the transfer ceiling. It is one of the ways transfer students can make progress in Newlane programs while keeping the remaining coursework focused on the degree requirements that still need to be met.
This course is a good fit for students who want a practical healthcare finance elective that can move cleanly into a Newlane degree plan. It may be especially useful for adults returning to school, students finishing a degree, or people changing fields who want transfer credit that Newlane will count as Elective within its 90-credit maximum. It is less useful for someone who needs a major-specific course at Newlane, since the equivalency here is elective rather than a direct major match.
Newlane University is DEAC-accredited and competency-based — you progress by demonstrating mastery. Tuition is a flat $1,500 per degree ($3,000 for a full bachelor's without an associate degree), and up to 75% of degree credit can come from transfer.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Newlane University.
