The Nashville Health Care Council announced its 32-member fellowship class for 2018 Monday.
The fellowship was founded by the Nashville Health Care Council in 2013. It brings together healthcare executives for a two-day orientation and eight subsequent meetings over the course of a year to try and address the healthcare industry's most pressing issues.
"The collaboration and relationships that result from this annual program strengthen not only today's healthcare community, but also the future of our field. As healthcare continues to undergo constant change, I eagerly anticipate the conversations and tangible contributions that will stem from this class," said former Sen. Bill Frist, R-Tenn., MD, co-director of the fellowship.
