Covers: Health care and diversity, equity, and inclusion

2025 Power 100: Rozanna Penney

Penney has turned around the sinking ship that was Heywood Healthcare and today, the once-floundering system is breathing a sigh of relief.

2025 Power 100: Dr. Cherise Hamblin

As maternal morbidity rates continue to rise throughout the state, Hamblin has become one of the region’s most ardent advocates for the interrelated causes of addressing Black maternal health and diversifying healthcare professionals.

2025 Power 100: Dr. Eric Dickson

When Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer was about to close in the summer of 2024, Dickson said he was looking into every opportunity possible to support the region left without its most central hospital.

2025 Power 100: Louis Brady

2025 Power 100: Stephen Kerrigan

Few leaders in Central Massachusetts fight as fiercely to provide health care regardless of an individual’s ability to pay like Kerrigan, and this past year, he set records.

2025 Power 100: Kurt Isaacson

As Central Massachusetts continues to reel from the impacts of the ongoing opioid epidemic, Isaacson has leveraged his position as the head of Spectrum to provide services to as many patients as possible in as many locations as possible.

2025 Power 100: Manny Lopes

In July, Lopes stepped into his role leading Central Massachusetts’ seventh largest health insurer and one of its largest employers, mere months before the President Donald Trump Administration began mulling over plans to cut billions in Medicaid funding.

2025 Power 100: Michael Welch

Welch works to center the community as he leads the region’s seventh largest bank. Leading an institution with $2.4 billion in local deposits and $2.6 billion in assets as of June 30 means the pressure is on Welch to strategically invest in initiatives to support both the bank and the towns and cities it operates in.
