As practicing professionals, we know there are unsung heroes among us. But while caring for patients in a heroic manner, health care workers sometimes struggle with varying circumstances in their own personal lives. Sometimes even a hero needs help and can use someone to uplift them. The ACMA Case Management Hero Award was established to recognize a stellar case management professional, who has continually delivered exemplary service for our patients and families, but has also faced a major life challenge and could benefit from a helping hand.

Has someone you know been challenged with a traumatic event, unexpected loss, home or economic devastation, or overwhelming familial responsibilities? These heroes typically persevere in an awe-inspiring way. We are looking for someone extraordinary – who would benefit from ACMA uplifting them in some way. If you know someone who meets the criteria of a health care hero but who could also use assistance in the face of an overwhelming struggle or challenge, nominate them for the 2023 Case Management Hero Award.

At the 2021 National Conference, we were delighted to honor two deserving individuals as our inagural Case Management Heroes, Jamie Clardy from Lexington Medical Center and Linda Kuitert from Memorial Hermann. At the 2022 National Conference, we were able to posthumously honor Monica "Tisha" Ouzts from Self Regional Healthcare.

In the interest of again recognizing the professional practice heroes among us, we ask for your assistance in identifying these deserving individuals, to be recognized at the 2023 National Conference in Washington D.C.

Please submit your nomination via the form below . We may contact you for additional information, but all submissions will be reviewed by a panel of ACMA peers. Please give this thought and help us recognize these extraordinary heroes who can use our support.
