Healthcare Leadership Fellows Program
Dean Augustine M.K. Choi announces the eleventh year of the Healthcare Leadership Fellows Program aimed at identifying Weill Cornell’s “leaders of tomorrow”. Physician leadership is a scarce resource; the development of new leaders is becoming even more important, as health care reform attempts to drive value-based care and population health that has led to major changes in the ways that health care is paid for, organized, and delivered.
Sixty-eight Weill Cornell faculty members have been selected as Fellows during the first ten years of the program; many have assumed leadership roles within departments and on committees of Weill Cornell and NYP. The program provides funds to support leadership training/educational opportunities for Fellows. It also provides mentoring from the Fellowship Committee and others, small group meetings with nationally known leaders, and opportunities for discussion with current and past Fellows. Department chairs must promise 10% protected time for Fellows to spend on their Fellowship.
