These professionals work in other industries such as hospitals, nursing care facilities, home healthcare facilities and physicians' offices. Many of these industries paid higher wages than the outpatient care industry, which can be attributed to factors such as responsibilities of the job and the educational and licensing requirements for medical and health services managers in other industries.
