AHA is the nation’s largest hospital and health care system membership organization with nearly 5,000 member hospitals, health care systems, networks and other providers of care. Serving as the AHA’s top leader since 2015, Pollack is widely recognized for his strong, effective advocacy and leadership on behalf of our nation’s hospitals, the patients and communities they serve, and the health care professionals those organizations support.

"WHA looks forward to welcoming AHA’s Rick Pollack back to Madison for Advocacy Day this year – his first time back since 2016,” said WHA President and CEO Eric Borgerding. “Rick has led AHA through numerous advocacy efforts throughout his tenure. His vast knowledge and perspective are sure to be insightful for our attendees,” he continued.
In addition, the day’s agenda will feature a great lineup of speakers, including the popular legislative panel discussion, followed by a luncheon keynote address from Governor Tony Evers (invited). The highlight of Advocacy Day is always the hundreds of attendees who take what they’ve learned during the day and then meet with their legislators in the state capitol in the afternoon. Advocacy Day is one of the greatest opportunities hospital employees, trustees and volunteers have to make an important, visible impact in the state capitol.
