Hendrix Alumna Represents UAMS at National Competition

CONWAY, Ark. (March 21, 2014) – Hendrix alumna Hailey Hundley recently competed at the National Healthcare Case Competition sponsored by the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Hundley, a 2011 Hendrix graduate, is a senior Master’s in Health Services Administration (MHSA) at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences’ Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health (COPH). The MHSA program prepares students for managerial careers and leadership positions in health care organizations such as hospitals, medical group practices, and insurance companies.  

Hundley said that the “competition was a rewarding experience overall. We were able to showcase our knowledge and creativity as we ultimately developed a workable solution to real-world problem. Although we did not place, I am pleased to know that UAMS MHSA students are capable of producing a business proposal on par with some of the greatest hospital administration programs in the nation.”
