100 Most Powerful People in Health Care
Between now and May 7th, you can nominate the individuals that you believe have been the most influential leaders in changing the face of health care for the Modern Healthcare magazine’s annual list of 100 Most Powerful People in Healthcare.
Why not vote for your favorites from among the experts who regularly post their commentaries on this blog? These include:
Ron Bachman
Michael Bond
Jim Frogue
John Goodman
Linda Gorman
Robert Graboyes
John R. Graham
Devon Herrick
Regina Herzlinger
June O’Neill
Roy Ramthun
Greg Scandlen
This is a good way to give a pat on the back to our friends.
“Powerful”, we are not, as the current law reflects!Assuming I cannot vote for myself (which I wouldn’t anyway) I give a thumbs up to Linda Gorman. She truly has original insight and analysis.
If we’re looking for people who were a positive influence, I suppose Bob Dole and Phil Gramm deserve a plurality of credit for delaying the inevitable for 15 years or so.
Also add Sen Tom Coburn and Rep Paul Ryan.
Sad fact is that you won’t find the two people on this this list who are the only ones who belong there: the individual doctor and patient.
TheBlackRibbonProject.org—raising awareness of policies harmful to the integrity of the doctor-patient relationship.
Dr. Hayes: you will find quite a few poeple on the list who are trying to preserve the doctor-patient relationship.
