Fortune has released its ranking of female business leaders, and seven healthcare leaders made the list.
The "Most Powerful Women" list, in its 27th year, ranks 100 women globally and features women from 19 countries and territories, and 14 industries.
To make the list, Fortune considers the following criteria: the size of an executive's business; the health of an executive's business; the executive's career trajectory; the executive's influence outside her organization; and how the executive wields her power. More than half of the women on this year's list are CEOs, and 26 are newcomers. Read more about the methodology here.

2. Karen Lynch, president and CEO of CVS Health
5. Emma Walmsley, CEO of GSK
24. Heather Cianfrocco, CEO of Optum
