LOCAL EXECUTIVE EARNS TOP HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT CREDENTIAL

Dr. Mark Woodring, FACHE, CEO, Coffeyville Regional Medical Center, Coffeyville, Kansas, recently was re-credentialed as a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives, the nation’s leading professional society for healthcare leaders.

“The healthcare management field plays a vital role in providing high-quality care to the people in our communities, which makes having a standard of excellence promoted by a professional organization critically important,” says Deborah J. Bowen, FACHE, CAE, president and chief executive officer of ACHE. “Healthcare leaders demonstrate a commitment to excellence in serving their patients and the community by earning the distinction of board certification from ACHE.”

Fellow status represents achievement of the highest standard of professional development. In fact, only 9,100 healthcare executives hold this distinction. To obtain Fellow status, candidates must fulfill multiple requirements, including passing a comprehensive examination, meeting academic and experiential criteria, earning continuing education credits and demonstrating professional/community involvement.
