Chief Information Officer
DaVita
Nov 2008 - Feb 2013 (4 years 4 months)
DaVita is the dialysis division of DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc., a Fortune 500® company. A leading provider of kidney care in the United States, DaVita delivers dialysis services to patients with chronic kidney failure and end stage renal disease.
In 2005, I was promoted to Chief Operating Officer, Integration. In this role, I managed a large merger, doubling the size of the company to $6 billion by leading all aspects of integration of Gambro to 1,000 dialysis centers and 28,000 employees. I oversaw employee retention, layoffs, and payer contract and systems integration.
I also looked for and identified opportunities for process improvements resulting in $20 million in G&A savings during Gambro integration.
