Gregory (Greg) Angle oversees 11 hospitals as the president of HCA Mountain Division in Cottonwood Heights, Utah. The former chairman of the Utah Hospital Association, Greg Angle is an active member of the American Hospital Association (AHA).
The AHA advocates for legislation that improves the delivery of health care and supports medical providers in effectively dispensing care. For this reason, the AHA welcomes the introduction to the Senate of the Title VIII Nursing Workforce Reauthorization (NWR) Act of 2019. Title VIII, first signed into law in 1964, was developed to ensure that an adequate number of nurses were being educated and trained to meet the nation’s healthcare needs. The latest expansion to the NWR Act, which was introduced with bipartisan support, allocates government funds to professional development programs, loan forgiveness programs, scholarships, and nursing education programs specifically designed for professionals working in medical facilities in rural and underserved areas. The act also increases the types of nursing programs and clinics that qualify for federal funds.
