Health: Focus on holistic well-being in partnership with community resources
Innovation: Seamless care propelled by teams, technology, innovation and data
Affordability: The best care that adds value to lives
Individual as Partner: Recognize the diversity of individuals and serve as partners in their health.
  
There are different applications for individual hospitals and for health systems but only one winner will be chosen (and presented with $75,000), along with up to two $12,500 finalists and up to four citations of merit. Click here for more information and the application.
