Intermountain Healthcare CEO Marc Harrison was recently named to Modern Healthcare's list of the 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives. It is the fourth year in a row that Harrison has been included in the list. 

“Dr. Harrison’s leadership has fostered a change in the way we look at the health of our communities and how we better deliver healthcare to patients,” said Rob Allen, Intermountain Healthcare senior vice president and chief operating officer. “These steps have proven invaluable in our ability to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Other names on the list include executives from some of the most recognizable healthcare centers in the world, such as Johns Hopkins and the Mayo Clinic, as well as medical experts who have been in the national spotlight recently: Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx. 

In placing Harrison on the list, Modern Healthcare cited Intermountain Healthcare's "efforts to reimagine primary care, which has reduced emergency room visits and hospital admissions, and Intermountain’s willingness to send doctors, nurses and other caregivers to New York City earlier this year during their height of the COVID-19 outbreak."
