This list identified 34 accomplished executives of color have broken barriers as they ascended to positions of influence in health care. This group includes administrators at hospitals and health systems as well as educators and executives in pharma and insurance.

With the pandemic hitting Black and Brown communities hard, these Notables worked to provide relief, make vaccines and boosters available and educate families on safety measures.

They led their own organizations through the response to COVID, securing personal protective equipment, implementing protocols and ensuring the safety of patients and staff. With heightened awareness over racial inequality, they established or expanded diversity programs.
