Amanda Corrigan, coding supervisor, Health Information Management, received the ICARE Award for Excellence on February 27, 2026.
She was nominated by coworkers Audrey Bringer, Rachel Eldridge and Kristine Wilson, for her ability to create connections among HIM teams to keep everyone engaged.
The nomination read in part: “We have a large percentage of virtual team members. Amanda suggested creating interest groups on Teams so that our department members had a way to engage with their co-workers even while working virtually. Amanda created a poll of topics of interest to which staff responded. This resulted in Amanda creating a Book Club, Food Network, and Fitness Group. HIM leadership posts topics of interest in these groups to engage our staff. Amanda took the lead on the Book Club which is very successful. One month the book was an advent devotional on which she received great feedback. This resulted in requests from staff to create a new devotional Teams group.
Amanda leads this team and is very passionate about it. She invests a lot of her own personal time and funds into the devotional group. We have 41 team members that have chosen to be a part of this group which meets briefly several times a month.
Amanda posts daily from each month’s chosen devotional. Our teams have expressed that after reviewing the daily devotional it helps them focus and helps them throughout the day. Members of this group have received devotional literature and activities in the mail which Amanda puts together on her personal time and her own dime. Amanda is a blessing to our HIM team.”
