The awards will honor those campaigns that helped organizations make an impact in today's dynamic healthcare marketplace. Awards will be given to campaigns across all media platforms that promoted the health of individual patients, groups and communities, and helped organizations thrive and grow in today's dynamic healthcare environment.
