Heartland Whole Health Institute Leader Recognized in Arkansas 250

Heartland Whole Health Institute is pleased to share that Claude Pirtle, MD, MBA, MSACI, President, has been named to the Arkansas 250, an annual recognition published by Arkansas Business highlighting influential leaders who help shape the state's business, civic, educational, and cultural landscape.

While the recognition is awarded to individuals, it also reflects the collective efforts of organizations and communities working to create positive change across Arkansas.

Since its founding, the Institute has focused on transforming health through a whole-person approach that recognizes the connection between physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. Through collaboration with health care providers, employers, policymakers, and community leaders, the Institute works to advance systems and policies that support better health outcomes for all.

"This recognition underscores the importance of the work being done across Arkansas to rethink how we approach health and well-being," said Pirtle. "Progress happens when organizations come together around a shared commitment to helping people live healthier lives."

The Institute remains committed to helping build a health system that rewards better health, expands access to whole-person care, and supports stronger communities throughout Arkansas and the nation.

We congratulate the many leaders recognized in this year's Arkansas 250 and look forward to continuing this important work together.
