The ACHE is the nation’s leading professional society for healthcare leaders. Kroel is chief executive officer of Liberty Regional Medical Center.

“By becoming an ACHE fellow, healthcare leaders can show they are committed to providing high quality service to their patients and community.”

Fellows are also committed to ongoing professional development and undergo recertification every three years.
