Senior health care leaders may apply through June 1 to participate in the next AHA Health Care Transformation Fellowship, a nine-month program designed to give participants knowledge, tools and connections to transform their health care organizations. Through in-person learning retreats, webinars, one-on-one coaching and peer-to-peer networking, participants learn how to lead their hospital organizations toward the Triple Aim of better care, better health and lower cost. Curriculum topics include clinician alignment and leadership; new care delivery models; population health management; integration of health information technology; and evolving partnerships with payers, employers, community organizations and others.
