MHCI alumni are very active and maintain contact with the Master of Health Care Innovation in a variety of ways, including:
The Class of 2022 came together from across the health care industry and around the world to form a close network for collaboration, support, and friendship. Those bonds helped them complete a rigorous program even during the COVID-19 pandemic. A blend of established and aspiring leaders, they work as executives, physicians, clinical care managers, growth directors, innovation and program managers, nurses, consultants, researchers, federal agency administrators, pharmacy and finance directors, application analysts, radiology faculty, and surgeons. MHCI alumni work for academic medical centers, health networks, private practice, consulting firms, startups, and federal agencies.
It’s been about connection... I remember meeting people with passion and wanting to make the world a better place. It’s so inspiring... I think there’s a lot we can change, there’s a lot of hope. The program has given us tools and frameworks so we can make some good things happen
Both MHCI faculty/staff and my cohort members have shown me not only ways to make a difference in health care but also how to ultimately increase affordability, accessibility, and quality of care
