What is the Health Leadership Institute?
The HLI aims to prepare physicians to lead the transformation of health care by furthering their knowledge, skills and insights. Learn ways to bring the clinical perspective to decisions that are essential to the delivery of quality, efficient and cost-effective health care.

The program offers current and future leaders the opportunity to gain an in-depth knowledge of the role leadership plays in medicine, and prepares participants for roles within their practice location, health system, and greater professional development, civic development, community engagement as well as leadership skills training. Scholarships are available!
