Rick Pollack
President and CEO, American Hospital Association
Pollack serves on the boards of the AHA and the Coalition to Protect America’s Healthcare and is a member of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Committee of 100.

Pollack speaks: “Critical tools will help ensure hospitals and health systems can provide the right treatment for patients in the right location. This includes providing care in non-traditional settings, remotely through telehealth and in appropriate outpatient facilities through easing of the Stark Law, licensure for advanced practice caregivers and other waivers to enhance flexibility for rural and critical access hospitals, as well as home healthcare.”
