Our leaders and caregivers will continue to carry our important work forward and ensure that the health and well-being of our patients remain at the center of our work.”
The Intermountain Healthcare board plans to name an interim president and CEO and will conduct a national search for a replacement this fall.
With locations in seven states and additional operations across the western U.S., Intermountain Healthcare is a nonprofit system of 33 hospitals, 385 clinics, medical groups with some 3,900 employed physicians and advanced care providers, a health insurance division called SelectHealth with more than 1 million members, and other health services.{/mprestriction}
