AdventHealth East Florida

Congratulations to David Banks on his appointment as AdventHealth's next president and CEO! His strategic vision and decades of dedication to our mission position us perfectly to expand our impact in the communities we're privileged to serve. 🏥 🎉

Making a difference where it matters most! 👏 Our AdventHealth leaders, including CEOs David Weis and Lorenzo Brown, recently hit the halls of the Florida state capitol during the 2025 Florida Hospital Association Hospital Days. Engaging directly with legislators representing our division, we're advocating for critical health care reforms that will transform patient care across Florida. We're putting patients first by asking policymakers to: ✅ Reform prior authorization processes (because paperwork shouldn't slow down care) ✅ Open up LINE funding to also include Allied Health professionals ✅ Enhance support for behavioral health workers When our leaders step up, real change becomes possible. By bringing our frontline insights directly to policymakers, we're working to build a stronger, more responsive health care system for every Floridian. 🏥💡
