The Fellowship is organized as an educational work program. Fellows receive a stipend with benefits identical to those of other hospital employees in addition to an allowance for moving expenses.

Northwestern Memorial Hospital recruits two to three Fellows each year. The program begins in early July. Applications are due in October of the previous year. Candidates must have a master's degree in health services or business administration or an equivalent. Leading applicants are generally interviewed during October and November, with final selections made in November. Incomplete applications will not be considered past the deadline date.
