The Chattanooga Times Free Press and Edge Magazine, in partnership with the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Medical Society, will recognize local “Champions of Health Care” with a new award program this year to honor individuals who are making a significant impact on the quality of health care in the Chattanooga area.
Nominations are being sought through May 13 for persons or organizations in seven award categories. Winners will be selected by a panel of judges in leadership roles in the local health care industry. One winner in each category will be announced at an awards luncheon on Wednesday, Sept. 21, and profiled in the September issue of Edge magazine.
“We believe this new program will help increase awareness of the quality of health care in our community,” said Bruce Hartmann, president of The Chattanooga Times Free Press “It’s also a chance to celebrate some of those in the field who are dedicated to advancing the quality of life of others.”
Any individual may nominate a person or organization at www.championschatt.com for the following awards:
