This page shows what graduates with an undergraduate certificate or diploma in Health and Medical Administrative Services earn four years after graduating, what they typically owe, the schools that report these figures (listed alphabetically), and the occupations linked to this field by the federal CIP-to-SOC crosswalk. It covers 310 reporting units (schools, or groups of campuses that report together) with these figures.

In context: across the 31 certificate and diploma fields with earnings reported by at least 30 schools or school groups, the typical field's median is $45,268; this field's median of $35,447 is 22% below that. The middle half of its graduates differ by $25,277 (25th to 75th percentile), narrower than the typical field's $34,989, so earnings within this field are more tightly grouped than usual. Typical federal debt of $10,800 is about 30% of one year of that median (debt and earnings cover different graduating years). These are group figures, not predictions for any graduate.
