HFMA Awards

The HFMA Awards celebrate excellence in finance departments across the four home nations, showcasing best practice and achievement in financial management and governance.  This is important as, while the public sector ethos is as strong in finance departments as it is in front line services, the important work of these teams is all too often overlooked.

Now in its sixth year, HFMAs Awards Programme recognises the contribution that finance teams and individuals make to healthcare in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.  The Awards cover the fundamental aspects of the finance team role including the production of accounts, governance, training and development as well as the vital area of efficiency.  Our Awards also stress the importance of engaging clinicians in financial management and for the first time this year, the work of Deputy Directors of Finance is also being recognised.

HFMA is renowned as ‘The Voice of Healthcare Finance’.  The awards ceremony at HFMAs Annual Conference in December will be an opportunity for that voice to be heard, celebrating the contribution and success of finance teams across the UK with an audience of nearly 750 of your peers.

Who can enter?
The Awards are open to all healthcare organisations and employees across the UK – both executives and non-executives.  We are also happy to receive entries from voluntary or private sector organisations whose principal activities are the provision of health services.
