Read an op-ed by NYHealth President and CEO David Sandman and Primary Care Development Corporation CEO Louise Cohen on how New York State could rebalance health care dollars to better emphasize primary and preventive care.
Month: May 2022
Current director to lead new state Veterans Department in New York
An updated name. The same commitment.
Dear Colleague,
I’m writing today with some exciting news: we’ve modified the name of our organization to the New York Health Foundation (NYHealth).
Our former name—New York State Health Foundation—was a source of confusion among some stakeholders, leading them to believe the Foundation is part of State government. This tweak will help clarify that the Foundation is a private, independent philanthropy rather than a public agency.
What’s NOT changing is our commitment to distribute funds statewide and to serve all parts of the State. We will also continue to collaborate with the State (and other levels of government) when our agendas overlap and we can combine efforts for greater impact.
On a practical level: our website can now be found at www.nyhealthfoundation.org
And our email addresses will now use the convention: [lastname]@nyhealthfoundation.org. Please be sure to update your contacts accordingly.
We look forward to continuing our partnership to make New York State a healthier place for all. Forward together!
David Sandman, Ph.D.
President and CEO
New York Health Foundation
