Zweifel receives leadership award

The Wisconsin Health Information Management Association recently awarded Sheila Zweifel the “Distinguished Member” leadership award.

Zweifel is team manager of medical record services at University Health Services. The prestigious award recognizes an association member who has actively contributed to the profession and is seen as a model for leadership, innovation and creativity. Sheila has held several key leadership positions with the association and was praised for her “positive attitude, willingness to help, and ability to make all tasks manageable and fun.”

Ferdinand Schlapper, UHS administrative services director, says UHS has relied upon Zweifel’s professional savvy and expertise to provide leadership and guidance on all these health information system functions for more than 25 years.

“We extend our warm congratulations to her for this award and recognition,” Schlapper says.
