Thank you for considering an Administrative Fellowship with MedStar Health. I began my career as the Administrative Fellow at MedStar Health's largest hospital, the MedStar Washington Hospital Center, more than 30 years ago. Since then, I have been a firm believer in not only the invaluable experience the fellow can gain, but the fresh perspective you can bring to our organization.
This fellowship is unique in that the fellow is not located within one of our hospitals. Rather, the fellow is based at MedStar's corporate office in Columbia, MD.
At the system level, the fellow provides staff support to projects of interest to you. In addition, the fellow has the unique opportunity to attend MedStar Health Board meetings. Furthermore, the fellow will attend my Leadership Team meetings and Senior Manager Lecture Series to give you not only the perspective of important initiatives within our organization, but to observe the challenges and the way in which the MedStar Leadership Team and I address those challenges.
In addition, you will spend time at MedStar Health's 10 hospitals and 20 diversified organizations in Baltimore, MD, and Washington, D.C., working on various projects and attending hospital executive meetings and Board meetings.
Needless to say, the fellow experiences tremendous exposure to both system and hospital executives throughout the course of this fellowship. I encourage you to explore our website and to contact our current fellow with any additional questions you may have. On behalf of the leadership team at MedStar Health, thank you for exploring this unique opportunity and we look forward to your application.
Sincerely,
Kenneth A. Samet, FACHE
President and CEO
