In 2009, NCHN implemented the NCHN Annual* Awards program designed to honor outstanding individuals and organizations in the field of health networks. You will find award recipients listed below, along with the Call for Nominations when it is available. It's never too soon to start thinking about who should be recognized this year.
*Due to a joint summit with 3RNet and NOSORH in 2015, NCHN Annual Awards were not given.
