FACHE Exam Prep: Board Review

Prepare for the ACHE Board of Governors Examination in Healthcare Management, the exam behind the FACHE credential, in a study app set up like a boardroom. Read the packet, make the call a senior healthcare leader would make, and see the reasoning for every option.

EXECUTIVE SESSION
Each item is a board or C-suite situation with the facts in front of you and four possible motions. Pick the best leadership or governance action, then read why it carries and why each alternative falls short. Ten categories: board and governance, ethics and conflicts, medical staff relations, finance and capital, workforce and labor, quality and safety, compliance and legal, strategy and partnerships, technology and cyber, and crisis and community.

FINANCE WORKBOOK (FREE)
Practice the ratios the Finance domain leans on: operating margin, days cash on hand, debt service coverage and FTEs per adjusted occupied bed. Sample figures, your own figures, the working shown and a plain statement of what the number tells a board. For exam practice only.

YOUR AGENDA
Home is today's meeting agenda: continue your scored set, review your weakest domain, take today's executive session, clear unfinished business, and count down to your exam date. Committee reports show your accuracy across all ten domains next to each domain's exam weight.

STUDY EVERY DOMAIN
• Scored ten-question practice sets with results by domain and review of misses
• Scenario-based multiple choice, true/false, flashcards and term matching
• Practice by domain and a missed-questions deck
• A searchable glossary of healthcare management terms
• Formulas and frameworks: finance ratios, productivity, DMAIC, PDSA, Kotter, Lewin, SWOT and more
• The exam outline with weights, question counts and official links

Content follows ACHE's ten outline domains: Healthcare; Management and Leadership; Finance; Human Resources; Laws and Regulations; Quality and Performance Improvement; Business; Healthcare Technology and Information Management; Professionalism and Ethics; and Governance and Organizational Structure. All writing is original.
