Savings = semester credits × $518: Strayer's $1,555 undergraduate tuition per course (strayer.edu, 13 Oct 2026) divided by the 3 semester hours one Strayer course equals. Strayer makes the final credit award.
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.
The course is self-paced and online, built around video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. Your grade is weighted equally across four parts: 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. Completing the course with a grade of C or higher produces the transcript credit that Strayer recognizes as HSA225 – Economics and Finance for Healthcare Leaders.
Reading financial statements, forecasting budgets, and understanding how payer systems and regulations affect revenue are useful in hospital departments, clinic operations, and health administration work. At Strayer, the HSA225 credit can count toward the Associate in Arts or a Bachelor's degree, so the same coursework supports both your current job and your degree progress. The skills and the credit reinforce each other rather than competing for your time.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent to Strayer, where the registrar applies the credit as HSA225 – Economics and Finance for Healthcare Leaders. This is a named course equivalency, which is the strongest form of transfer recognition, so the credit fills a defined course slot in your degree plan rather than counting only as general elective credit. Strayer's 2026-2027 catalog accepts ACE and NCCRS-reviewed credit with a grade of C or higher, up to 126 quarter hours (70%) toward a bachelor's degree. Before registering for remaining courses, check your degree plan against that 126-credit limit.
This course fits working adults who want a grounding in healthcare finance while also moving a Strayer degree forward, degree-finishers who have transferable coursework left to place, and cost-conscious students who want to reduce the number of credits paid at Strayer's rate of $518 per credit. Because the named equivalency maps the course to a specific catalog code, it is most useful to students who are actually enrolled in or planning a Strayer degree path. It is not a good fit if you have no plans to study at Strayer, if you need credit beyond the transfer ceiling, or if you expect a single course to replace the broader degree requirements.
Strayer University signed an articulation agreement with UPI Study (effective 15 June 2025). Its 2026-2027 catalog accepts credit reviewed by ACE and NCCRS, with a grade of C or higher, up to 126 quarter hours toward a bachelor's degree.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Strayer determines, in its sole discretion, which credits qualify under the agreement and its transfer credit policies.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Strayer University.
