APG Colloquium 2019
Kevin leads the physician enterprise division of Providence St. Joseph Health –a $23B integrated Catholic health care delivery system spanning seven states – as Executive Vice President and Chief Executive, Physician Enterprise. With more than 8,000 providers across PSJH, the physician enterprise serves more than 4 million patients across the Western United States. Kevin also continues to serve as President and Chief Executive of St. Joseph Heritage Healthcare (Heritage), the physician foundation for eight medical groups across the state of California. With more than 2,000 physicians in medical group and IPA models, Heritage medical groups are some of the highest performing in the state – and are consistently recognized as top performers by the Integrated Health Care Association, APG and more. Heritage manages 100,000 Medicare Advantage (MA) lives and 400,000 commercial lives and accounts for about $1.8B in revenue. Thanks to continuous innovation in care delivery models, data driven solutions, and a focus on physician-led decision making, Heritage has significantly improved PMPM performance, physician and caregiver engagement and patient experience – charting to the top quartile. Kevin and the Heritage leaders are also responsible for developing a proprietary patient experience program, Own It, which reconnects caregivers and physicians with their purpose in health care, with an emphasis on creating a culture of empathy and compassion. Own It is now being scaled across the Providence St. Joseph Health ministry as a best practice. Kevin brings more than 15 years of ambulatory and acute operational experience, in addition to a long history in health care IT. He received a master’s degree in organizational leadership from Gonzaga University, his bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Iowa, and is Black Belt certified in Toyota’s LEAN model.
