Honoring Paul Torrens, MD
Professor Emeritus of Health Policy and Management and Founder of the Paul Torrens Health Forum at UCLA

Join us in June to celebrate Paul Viviano and Paul Torrens, MD

Partners’ Annual Tribute Dinner – originally scheduled for Monday, June 8, 2020 – is now scheduled for Monday, June 21, 2021. With continued uncertainty as to when it will be safe and appropriate to lift social distancing, Partners has decided to change direction and will hold either an in-person and virtual event or a virtual only event next year. As we prioritize the interest and safety of all, we encourage our community to unite virtually to honor two outstanding healthcare leaders.

Partners 2020 Tribute Dinner will honor President and CEO of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Paul Viviano, with the prestigious Vision & Excellence in Healthcare Leadership Award and Professor Emeritus of Health Policy and Management and Founder of the Paul Torrens Health Forum at UCLA, Paul Torrens, MD, with the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Mr. Viviano joined CHLA as President and Chief Executive Officer as well as a member of the Board of Trustees in 2015. He has enjoyed three decades of success leading academic medical centers, for-profit health care organizations and nonprofit community hospitals.

Prior to joining CHLA, Mr. Viviano served as the Chief Executive Officer of UC San Diego Health System and Associate Vice Chancellor of UC San Diego Health Sciences. There he oversaw the entire $1.7 billion UC San Diego health care enterprise, which included leading-edge medical care; training of medical students, residents and fellows; and patient care delivery for two teaching hospitals.

Mr. Viviano serves in leadership capacities on various community and health care organizations and was named a 2016 Leader of Today honoree by the Health Policy and Management Alumni Association of the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health; and one of the LA500, LA’s Most-Influential, in 2018 and 2017 by the Los Angeles Business Journal.
Mr. Viviano is a California native and earned his bachelor’s degree at the University of California, Santa Barbara, as well as a master’s degree in public administration-public health at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Mr. Viviano is a deeply respected leader and highly deserving of the honor this evening represents.
