Spring on the York College campus

Virginia Bell '87

Distinguished Alumni Service award recipient

Senior Regulatory Consultant
Cerner Corporation
"The Health Information Management program was very small when I was at York College. I graduated with six other ladies in 1987. The York College of Pennsylvania name got me in the door for interviews when I first graduated from college. Then, when I had more experience, I found more YCP alumni in the profession working in the area."

Current City:  Baltimore, MD

YCP Degree: BS Health Records Administration
