The Business of Medicine Class Gift fund plays a vital role in supporting the program’s mission to prepare physician leaders who can lead healthcare organizations through challenging times. Gifts to this fund ensure that the program continues to provide exceptional benefits for current students and alumni, helping maintain its position as a premier educational resource for physicians.

Some of the vital ways your gift may be used include, but are not limited to, the following.

Supporting current students: Donations directly enhance the educational experience of students by:

  • Funding the executive lecture series throughout the degree program and supporting networking receptions during residency placements.
  • Providing scholarships for specialized courses like the Healthcare Policy Immersion in Washington, DC, and the Global Healthcare Experience, helping students broaden their understanding of healthcare systems both domestically and internationally.

Empowering alumni: The class gift also provides valuable benefits for alumni, including:

  • Access to continuing medical education opportunities, such as courses, webinars, and the Global Healthcare Experience course offered exclusively to alumni.
  • Services like the Hart-Mathis Leadership Alumni Coaching Program, quarterly newsletters, and a dedicated Alumni Board that strengthen the bond between alumni and the program.
  • Continued engagement with program faculty, courses, and events in the healthcare community.
  • The advancement of future initiatives like mentoring programs and expanded career services to support the career advancement of graduates.

Preparing leaders for healthcare crises: In the face of an ever-changing healthcare landscape marked by events such as the pandemic and ongoing labor shortages, the Physician MBA Program is more critical than ever. Gifts help ensure that future physician leaders have the skills and resources needed to lead healthcare organizations during times of crisis.

Sustaining program excellence: Class gift donations provide essential resources that enable program leadership to allocate funds where they are needed most, ensuring the program remains at the highest standard of excellence.

Your support strengthens the program’s legacy and its impact on healthcare leadership, ensuring that future generations of physician leaders are equipped to drive meaningful change in healthcare.
