Administrative Fellowship Training

The two-year administrative fellowship at Yale New Haven Health System provides the fellow with a valuable broad-based experience. The administrative fellow will rotate among the system’s four delivery networks (Yale-New Haven Hospital, Greenwich Hospital, Bridgeport Hospital, and Northeast Medical Group), as well as spend time at the system level gaining exposure to corporate finance, human resources, strategic operations and other corporate services.

As Connecticut’s leading healthcare system with more than 18,000 employees, Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS) provides a premiere setting for postgraduate training in healthcare management. The combination of three hospitals – Bridgeport Hospital, Greenwich Hospital, Yale-New Haven Hospital, along with Northeast Medical Group, a medical foundation – allows the system to provide comprehensive, cost effective, advanced patient care characterized by safety, quality and service.

The administrative fellow works with the leadership team of each delivery network during the year of fellowship. The fellow reports to the Yale New Haven Health System Executive Vice President, Strategy & System Development, and works directly with the hospital or medical foundation CEO and/or COO and senior leadership during delivery network rotations.

Project assignments are made at each delivery network and at the various corporate offices through which the fellow will rotate. Project assignments are based on initiatives underway during the administrative fellow’s tenure at the system, with an attempt to meet the specific interests and needs of the administrative fellow. Key areas of focus have included: performance improvement, service excellence, joint venture analyses, strategy development, new business development and operational changes. The fellowship year begins in July and applications must be submitted online by Oct. 1. (Note: Transcripts and letters of reference should be mailed directly).
