It also contains several lists, including 16 hospitals with the most emergency room visits, 15 rural hospital closures in 2020, the 20 most expensive drugs in the U.S. and top 10 hospitals for consumer loyalty. Readers will also find a conversation with Heather Geisler, Detroit-based Henry Ford Health System's senior vice president and chief marketing, communications and experience officer, on building trust, surprise and delight in healthcare, as well as a Corner Office interview with Paul Rothman, MD, CEO of Baltimore-based Johns Hopkins Medicine and dean of the medical faculty of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. I hope you enjoy reading! The October issue also includes several stories about how hospitals and health systems are responding to and recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as studies that may help providers better understand the virus. This widespread pandemic is unprecedented and moves quickly. As a result, Becker's Hospital Review sought to include pandemic news in this issue that is most likely to remain relevant when the print magazine hits readers' mailboxes.
