UoPeople is tuition-free, but charges a $120 per-course assessment fee for undergraduate courses. Savings = transferred credits × $40 (the per-credit equivalent of UoPeople's $120 assessment fee for a 3-credit course). UoPeople credit awards subject to their evaluation policy.
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 is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, attendance, and a final exam, with the grade split as 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish and your transcript is reviewed by University of the People, the credit is recognized as HLTH 3101 – Introduction to Health Care, a named course equivalency rather than a broad elective match.
The course gives you practical tools for reading financial statements, budgeting, and understanding how healthcare organizations manage costs and revenue, which can help in real workplace decisions. At University of the People, that credit can fit into degree pathways such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, so it can support progress toward a UoPeople program while building finance awareness for health settings.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for review and University of the People evaluates it through its transfer process. If accepted, the registrar applies the named equivalency HLTH 3101 – Introduction to Health Care to your record, which means the credit is placed into your UoPeople degree plan as that specific course rather than as an undefined block of transfer credit. Because UoPeople allows up to 90 transfer credits, this course can count toward the maximum transferable portion of an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, subject to the university's review. UoPeople is the world's first non-profit, tuition-free, WASC-accredited online university, and its transfer review is handled by the university rather than by the student.
This course is a good fit if you are planning ahead for University of the People and want a transfer course with a clear named match, HLTH 3101 – Introduction to Health Care, rather than an uncertain elective. It can also help if you are trying to stay within UoPeople's transfer ceiling of up to 90 credits, especially if you are working toward an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. It is not the best choice if you want a course with no assessment load or if you are not aiming for a degree plan that can use this UoPeople equivalency.
University of the People is the world's first non-profit, tuition-free, WASC-accredited online university. Its team evaluates your transcript for you, and you only pay a small per-course assessment fee — no tuition.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
