Administrative Fellowship - Finance

We've made a lot of progress since opening the doors in 1942, but one thing has never changed - our commitment to serve, heal, lead, educate, and innovate.  We believe that every award earned, every record broken and every patient helped is because of the dedicated employees who fill our hallways. 

At Ochsner, whether you work with patients every day or support those who do, you are making a difference and that matters.  Come make a difference at Ochsner Health and discover your future today! 

The Finance Fellowship program serves as a means to help develop a fellow’s career by fostering their professional development and providing broad experiences within health care, specifically in the Finance arena. Fellows will have the opportunity to be exposed to unique projects throughout their rotations in order to cultivate competencies that are critical to the success of the fellow.

Ochsner offers 1-2 Finance Administrative Fellowship positions yearly in the New Orleans region. Over the 24 month period, the Fellows have the opportunity to rotate through and experience aspects of the hospitals, clinics, corporate office and any of the other entities in which organizational needs are identified and fellow interest is expressed. Administrative Fellows are exposed to a broad range of hands-on experiences that will prepare them for a successful career in healthcare. Jeff Saucier, System Vice President of Financial Planning and Analysis acts as the preceptor for the Fellows and coordinates involvement with all levels of administration within the organization. Fellows will concentrate on areas associated with finance to obtain maximum understanding of healthcare finances and revenue, as well as rotate through areas related to their own interests and career objectives.
