Ten Central Texas companies are in the running for an award honoring the businesses trying to creatively solve the most pressing issues in the health care industry.

The three winners in Seton Healthcare Family’s “The Future of Care: Healthcare Innovation Awards” will be announced April 27 at a luncheon at the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Austin. One business will also be crowned the overall Innovator of the Year. Prizes include mentorships and work sessions with clinical teams, innovation leaders and subject matter experts.
