The AHA’s Next Generation Leaders Fellowship today announced its 43 fellows for 2024, who will work one-on-one with mentors to address a challenge specific to their hospital or health system, presenting their solution at the 2024 AHA Leadership Summit. Fellows hail from hospitals and health systems in 20 states and one U.S. territory, where they serve in roles including quality, medicine, operations, nursing, market intelligence, business development and geriatrics. 
 
“At the American Hospital Association, we believe in the power of the next generation of health care leaders to propel our communities and organizations into the future,” said Michelle Hood, AHA’s executive vice president and chief operating officer. “The important lessons the class of 2024 learns from this fellowship will truly lead to innovative changes in advancing health care across the country.”
 
Accenture sponsors the fellowship program, and 12 fellows receive scholarships from the John A. Hartford Foundation to participate as part of the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative.
