Plus: We're looking for someone to cover environmental health issues
This week, we extend an exuberant THANK YOU to the many volunteer judges who helped with this year's Awards for Excellence in Health Care Journalism. Since 2004, the Awards for Excellence in Health Care Journalism have recognized the best health reporting in print, broadcast, and online media. The contest was created by journalists for journalists and is not influenced or funded by commercial or special-interest groups. |
Each year, we rely on the expertise of dozens of journalism professionals to sift through entries and help us recognize the best in health journalism and each year the contest needs new judges. Serving as a judge does not bar you from entering the contest. Our committee works to avoid conflicts of interest for judges as well as reporters/entries from their outlet. For questions about judging or if you are an AHCJ member interested in serving on the contest committee, please contact AHCJ Membership Manager Tina England at tina@healthjournalism.org. |
Interested in volunteering as a judge for the 2023 contest? Sign up here. |

Now in its 19th year, the Association of Health Care Journalists’ annual Awards for Excellence in Health Care Journalism is a professional and public affirmation of the importance of health care as a beat. To select the most powerful, poignant and effective stories from all the submissions requires significant time, dedication and care. For that, we thank the dozens of volunteer judges who make it all possible. |
