Board Member

Dr. Ben Bache-Wiig joined the board in 2020 after retiring from an 11-year career with Abbott Northwestern Hospital and Allina Health, most recently serving as Allina’s executive vice president and chief clinical officer. He is currently the executive medical director at Lifesprk, a Twin Cities-based senior home care company.

Ben is excited about MHIF’s potential to leverage Allina’s enterprise data warehouse to drive quality and innovation in cardiovascular care, as well as MHIF’s research advances in heart valve disease and structural heart.
