Welcome to the Association of Healthcare Administrative Professionals of the American Hospital Association.

 

The Association of Healthcare Administrative Professionals (AHCAP) is a professional development and recognition society for executive assistants and administrative professionals in healthcare.  With over 600 members, we are the largest society dedicated to healthcare executive assistants.

 

As a dynamic and growing organization, AHCAP provides leadership opportunities through work on various committees and groups.  Members involved in leadership positions report that they can immediately apply what they've learned on the committees to their own careers.  We are the only national organization dedicated to those who support our nation’s top healthcare leaders.
