President's Message

What a year! It is hard for me to believe my time as President of IAHU is coming to a close. It has been my pleasure to be your president for the past twelve months. I feel like coming from the COVID year we had to almost restart. Had to figure out how to do things, not only in person but also virtually. Making sure the two work well for all those participating was a lot of extra work. 

Having a great team has made the job easy and enjoyable. I would like to thank each and everyone of them for the hard work and ability to get things done this past year. Nathan Semons, you did a great job planning this year’s symposium. I know you will do a great job leading our association this next year. Ernie Kroll, you always were prepared with your financials and had great questions and answers for them. I look forward to watching you grow in your leadership. Angie Jackson, thank you for setting a great example of what a president needs to do and be. I have loved working with you the past few years. Rhonda Bartholomew, not only did you do a great job with HUPAC/State PAC, but I also don’t think many people realize you are the heart and soul of planning our symposiums. Helping to guide the President Elect’s through the process of getting the location, planning the meals and all the little details. You are truly a huge part of our state association. Sue Stokesberry and Terrie Trevino, you two have done a great job organizing and getting our awards submitted to NAHU. You also did a great job during the symposium putting together the awards presentations at the State Symposium. Ryan Heider, thank you for staying on to assist with membership for one more year. Knute Kleven and Dawna Aragon, thank you for attending all the membership calls and keeping the state up to date on where were we stand with our retention. Phaedra Anderson and Angie Jackson a huge thank you for all your work with our Legislative issues. From organizing our visits in Washington, DC to keeping us up to date on what is happing in the State of Idaho. Korey Ashton thank you for being our Vanguard Chair. I know we as a state have a long way to go with it but know you will lead us in the right direction. Steve Moore thank you for guiding us to Malia Rogers. Having your knowledge and experience to help us with our Professional Development and helping guide Malia and her bringing in her expertise in graphics has made this year so much easier with our dual events, both virtual and in person. Brett Thomas thank you for setting us apart from other associations with an amazing website. You have taken us the next level. Pedro Rojas huge thank you for taking over the Media Relations and social media. You make it look easy and have us getting the word out on all the awards and events on every platform. Benn Brocksome your hard work and diligence is so appreciated. The weekly updates we get from you let us know we are being well taken care of and our interests are being protected. No organization could run without the guidance of a great Executive Director. Wendy Leatham thank you! You have had so much on your plate this year and have done such an amazing job of making sure we are running smooth.    

Thank you IAHU membership for allowing me the opportunity be your president. I hope I have served you in a satisfactory way. Be assured Nathan will be taking great care of our association this next year. Our association has earned more awards and recognition than in past years. This goes to show our association is in great hands and our future looks bright! 


Thank you!

The NAHU HealthCare Happy Hour is an informative & interesting resource that not every member takes advantage of. There has been some confusion and questions regarding the new Broker-Compensation Disclosure requirement effective after December 27, 2021. AgencyBloc discusses this topic and tools to assist with this: https://bit.ly/NAHUPodcastBrokerComp



This is the info NAHU released regarding that new requirement as well: https://bit.ly/NAHUBrokerCompInfo
