The AHA today presented its 2018 Board of Trustees Award to author and futurist Ian Morrison at the AHA Leadership Summit in San Diego. The award recognizes individuals or groups who have made substantial and noteworthy contributions to the work of the AHA. Morrison has served as the Summit's moderator and facilitator for about 20 years. He also has served on the board of directors for the AHA's Health Research & Educational Trust affiliate, and has been a columnist for AHA publications for more than 15 years. "Ian Morrison's deep insights and keen observations on health care have helped enrich the AHA, America's hospitals and health systems and the entire health care field," said AHA President and CEO Rick Pollack. "An author and speaker, Ian has translated information into knowledge for countless hospital and health systems leaders, and we have all benefited from his experience and innovative way of thinking."
