ProMedica President and CEO Recognized as One of the 100 Most Influential People by Modern Healthcare

ProMedica President and CEO, Randy Oostra

ProMedica is proud to announce its President and CEO Randy Oostra has been recognized by Modern Healthcare as one of the 100 Most Influential People of 2019. This is the third consecutive year Mr. Oostra has been recognized by Modern Healthcare in this capacity.

The prestigious recognition program acknowledges and honors individuals who are deemed by their peers and the senior editors of Modern Healthcare to be the most influential in the industry, in terms of leadership and impact.

“This year’s selection process was contentious and difficult. Many healthcare organizations made bold strides in the continued transformation of the industry. Many others were more cautious during a year that brought uncertainty over how the law of the land might change as a result of a federal court decision,” commented Aurora Aguilar, Modern Healthcare editor. “The honorees chosen this year by Modern Healthcare and our readers are those who were fearless in their risky strategies and unapologetic in their rationale. Whether you agree with the compiled list or not, you can’t argue with the influence of these 100 healthcare leaders. Congratulations to those honorees.”

“It’s an honor to be recognized as one of Modern Healthcare’s 100 most influential people,” said Randy Oostra, president and CEO, ProMedica. “This past year, the ProMedica team has continued its transformation by exploring several new opportunities that have come about through our nontraditional partnership with HCR ManorCare. These opportunities are helping ProMedica to redefine the role of health care in healthy aging and to expand our social determinants work – necessary steps to meet the future demands of health care.”
