Pamela Frank has more than 20 years of experience advancing the globalization of healthcare. As Director of International Services at leading institutions including Boston Children’s Hospital, Tufts Medical Center, and Children’s Mercy, she helped shape the medical travel industry and expand its complementary services, including telemedicine-based second opinions, educational exchanges, and international advisory programs.

In 2010, Pam collaborated with the U.S. Department of Commerce to support the formal establishment of the United States Cooperative for International Patient Programs (USCIPP), now the leading membership association for U.S. hospitals engaged in international healthcare.

During the onset of the Arab Spring, Pam served for three years as Acting Executive Director of the Egypt Cancer Network, a U.S.-based nonprofit supporting the Children’s Cancer Hospital Egypt 57357 in Cairo through fundraising and strategic partnerships.

Pam currently serves in an executive role at Advanced Bifurcation Systems, a breakthrough cardiovascular medical device company. She also advises early-stage companies across medtech, digital health, and biotechnology.

She is a member of the Board of Directors of the United Nations Association of Greater Boston. Pam has conducted business in more than 30 countries and has lived in Spain, Turkey, and Mexico. She is fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and holds an MBA from the Thunderbird School of Global Management and a BA from the University of Colorado Boulder.

Pam is particularly inspired by the foundation’s global resource exchange initiative and its work alongside innovators at Microsoft and WebMD/Medscape to scale access to advanced clinical care for children worldwide.
