This prestigious recognition program acknowledges and honors individuals who are deemed by the Modern Healthcare newsroom to be the most influential figures in the industry in terms of leadership and impact.
“Influence can be exerted in many ways but regardless of whether it is used to internally shape organizations, the healthcare industry as a whole or both, playing a positive role benefits patients and the professionals responsible for their health,” said Mary Ellen Podmolik, editor-in-chief of Modern Healthcare. “Our ranked list of the 100 Most Influential People in Healthcare highlights the executives in all corners of the industry who are striving to advance medicine and how care is delivered — and succeeding in doing so.”
"This recognition is really about the impact our clients are making in their communities and the work Vizient teams do to support them every day. Together, we are helping hospitals and health systems strengthen their financial footing, improve quality and safety, and tackle access and capacity challenges with stronger data and clearer insight,” Jobe said. “I’m proud of the way Vizient partners with organizations across the country to deliver more affordable, high-value care and make healthcare better for the patients and communities we all serve."
