About HRET and the TRUST Award
The Health Research & Educational Trust is an independent,
nonprofit organization engaging in timely research and education on topics
of critical interest to hospitals and health care systems and the communities
they serve. Since 1944 HRET, an affiliate of the American Hospital
Association, has developed and implemented an agenda of applied research,
education and training programs to move the hospital and health care field
toward improving the health of the U.S. population. HRET regularly works
with academic, research, policy and community organizations to fulfill its
mission of transforming health care through research and education.
HRET established the TRUST Award in 2003 to recognize individuals
who have demonstrated long-standing leadership in improving health
care quality and building continued trust within America’s health care
organizations and communities. TRUST Award honorees have leveraged
research and education to make a dramatic impact in policy and practice.
