The Opportunity
AMN Healthcare has partnered with Pullman Regional Hospital in Pullman, WA to recruit a new Chief Financial Officer following the announcement of the long-tenured CFO’s upcoming retirement. This is an exceptional opportunity to join an innovative, market leading community healthcare organization with an excellent clinical reputation and high level of community engagement.
The Organization
Pullman Regional Hospital is an independent, public, critical access hospital located in Pullman, Washington - in the heart of the Palouse, a vast geographic area spanning southeastern Washington and northern Idaho. Overlooking the Washington State University Campus, Pullman Regional Hospital includes a 95,000 square foot level IV trauma center with 25 patient beds, 4 ORs, 24-hour emergency care, and a network of a dozen clinics serving the Palouse region and beyond.
Since the construction of a state-of-the-art, 25-bed hospital in 2004, Pullman Regional Hospital has expanded its healthcare services to include clinics such as primary care, general surgery, cardiology, orthopedics, and urology. Over the past 20 years, the hospital has grown from 7,000 emergency visits to 14,500; surgical cases have grown by 35%, and a dozen clinics have been added. In 2023, Pullman Regional Hospital welcomed its first cohort of Family Medicine Residents onto campus in partnership with Washington State University’s Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine.
This summer, Pullman Regional Hospital will break ground on the Patient Care Expansion Project–a $45-50M, 5+ year phased project that includes a remodel of the hospital and medical office building on campus, funded through a $27.2M bond, hospital operations, financing, and philanthropy. In addition to the capital expansion project, Pullman Regional is committed to meeting the needs of the community through clinical growth and expansion, and the formal development of population health and value-based care initiatives. Leveraging existing Epic and Workday platforms, the CFO will lead the development of a data infrastructure, analytics, and dashboards to support organizational and departmental strategic priorities.
The Position
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) is an integral leader of Pullman Regional Hospital executive leadership team, contributing to the strength, growth, and long-term development of the organization. Reporting to the CEO, the CFO provides leadership to a tenured finance team, partners closely with the Executive and Management Teams, and reports regularly to the Board of Commissioners.
The Chief Financial Officer is responsible for the development, interpretation, coordination and administration of the organization's policies and practices on finance, revenue cycle, care management, accounting, insurance, managed care contracting, patient access (registration), patient financial services, internal controls, contracting/purchasing, auditing, and health information management. As a member of the senior leadership team, the CFO partners closely with the CEO and hospital leadership in strategic planning, budgeting, and performance improvement projects to enhance operational efficiency, improve financial performance and support clinical excellence.
The ideal candidate will be a proven healthcare leader who can provide expert guidance to the senior leadership team on all financial matters and strategies. He/she must truly enjoy working with physicians and hospital staff and be able to translate and streamline financial data into meaningful information that is standardized, useful, and productive for operations. He/she will have experience in a critical access hospital or community health system. He/she will be a collaborative, transparent and operationally focused financial leader who is a good listener, metric-driven, and results-oriented.
