Rebecca Flaherty, MPH

Fall 2024-Spring 2026

Rebecca Flaherty is a program manager in the Department of Pharmacy at Mount Sinai Health System in New York City. She earned her bachelor's degree from New York University and later completed a Master of Public Health at Boston University, focusing on healthcare management. During her studies in Boston, she found particular interest in lean management, healthcare delivery systems, and digital disruption in health. She gained valuable experience as a data coordinator for the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) clinical pathways team at Brigham and Women's Hospital and deepened her understanding of patient quality and safety. Upon returning to New York, she joined Mount Sinai, initially working with the 340B drug pricing program team before transitioning to my current role. She collaborated closely with the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee, particularly its subcommittees like the Medication Safety Committee and the Anticoagulation Steering Committee. Her focus lies in standardizing policies and practices across the system, leveraging systems approaches to identify vulnerabilities and enhance care efficiency for both patients and providers.
