CALLING ALL MHA ALUMNI
State of Reform received this email today from one of our partners, the UW Masters in Health Administration program. For decades now, the program has been graduating some of the top young executives in health care in the country. I understand that if you’re an alumnus, this is pretty great event to reconnect with folks – both students and professors.
