March 7 is the beginning of a new era at Modern Healthcare. Mary Ellen Podmolik, a veteran journalist, executive and strategic thinker, will become Modern Healthcare’s new editor. She comes to us after spending more than 15 years at the Chicago Tribune and other publications as a journalist and newsroom executive.
With a writer’s perspective, an executive’s discipline and an eye on the future of business, Mary Ellen will take charge of the healthcare industry’s leading news and media brand, which includes a bi-weekly magazine, a website, a family of issue-focused e-newsletters, data products, conferences and events. She’ll work to ensure that our content meets the highest standards of journalism: fairness, balance, accuracy, independence and relevance.
Mary Ellen will orchestrate conversation and debate on the evolving business of healthcare and lead our team of reporters and editors to help develop stories that matter.
“I’m excited to join Modern Healthcare and help position it for the future by working with a team dedicated to empowering industry leaders by providing them with unbiased and trusted news, analysis and data,” Mary Ellen shared with us.
As Modern Healthcare’s publisher, I join her in that excitement and can’t wait to be part of this new phase in Modern Healthcare’s evolution.
