Who are the Healthcare Heroes in your community?
We’re looking for extraordinary doctors, nurses, caregivers, and medical staff who not only provide exceptional care but also give back—through volunteerism, philanthropy, and leadership that makes a real impact on their community.

Nominate your Healthcare Hero today!
Each month, we’ll honor one outstanding healthcare provider, and a $1,000 donation will be made in their name to a non-profit of their choice.

A single act of care or community service can make a big difference—and could help a local non-profit receive $1,000!

Join us in celebrating our Healthcare Heroes, presented by Medica. Submit your nomination below!
(Contest runs through July 2026.)
