LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, January 22, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Becker’s Hospital Review, a leading industry publication, once again named Rhoda Weiss, Ph.D. to its 2023 national list of “Great Healthcare Leaders to Know.” Dr. Weiss is president of Los-Angeles based Rhoda Weiss Consulting Group and Chair of both Health Market Leaders and BetterTogether.Health.
She was selected among 80 leaders from across the country who are “expertly navigating the ever-changing landscape of modern healthcare,” stated Becker’s Hospital Review. “During this unprecedented era in health care, strong leaders are guiding organizations to new heights.”
The list celebrates leaders for the strides they’ve made in innovation, inclusivity, access to quality care, digital technology, novel care delivery approaches and creative care solutions to shape the future of health care.
“I’m deeply honored to be included among those included for setting and achieving innovations and leading what’s new, next and best in health care,” says Dr. Weiss.
Dr. Weiss was cited for decades of national leadership in strategy, marketing, branding, public relations, organizational name changes, crisis management and more.

Other honorees include entrepreneur and Shark Tank panelist Mark Cuban and top executives from Google Health, Mayo Clinic, Amazon, Stanford Health Care, Mayo Clinic and many other prestigious organizations.

In March 2020 as the pandemic widened, she created Health Market Leaders weekly calls representing the majority of U.S. hospitals and associations to discuss challenges, solutions and resources now with over 210 calls and counting.

The coalition of Cedars-Sinai, Dignity Health, Keck Medicine of USC, Providence and UCLA Health earned the Los Angeles Business Journal award for Best Collaboration.
