Ann Mitchell M.P.H.

President & CEO

Ann Mitchell has been in hospice management since 1981. Prior to coming to Montgomery Hospice in 1998, she worked for hospices in Massachusetts and South Carolina.

Ann also is Chairman of the Board of the Hospice Alliance, a cooperative of regional hospices that negotiates managed care contracts. In addition, she has been elected by her peers to the Board of Directors of the Hospice and Palliative Care Network of Maryland every year since 1999.

Ann majored in economics at Smith College, and in 1981 earned her Masters in Public Health from Yale University. She took courses at the Yale School of Management and the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the Yale School of Medicine to satisfy the requirements for her concentration in hospital administration. In the mid-1990's Ann was the principal investigator of a study, published as a letter in JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association), on the economics of hospice care.
