H-1B Dismissed — Healthcare Administration (2016): did not establish the proffered 'health operations manager'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'health operations manager' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the required educational background, allowing for a general degree in business administration, finance, health sciences, or a related field, was too broad and did not establish the need for a specific body of highly specialized knowledge directly related to the position's duties.
