Forward Together: U Health Vision 2030
Impact 2030: Building a Bold Future Together
Led by President Randall’s Impact 2030 vision, we have shaped our strategic direction to become a more comprehensive, more integrated, and high-performing academic health system.
Our Vision
Together, we are building a more integrated academic health system where world-class care, pioneering research, transformative education, and strong community partnerships come together to improve the lives of everyone in Utah—not just those who come through our doors. Our shared purpose extends across the state and Mountain West, helping to shape a healthier future for all.
