Ken Johnson’s Expertise Ken Johnson combines financial acumen and operations strategy to optimize performance of health systems, hospitals and physician practices. Over the past 20 years, he has skillfully led through change to drive the bottom line without compromising quality. Ken’s expertise spans the full range of healthcare C-suite leadership—from M&As to physician recruitment, facility expansion, service line development, community engagement, process improvement and cost controls. He is the rare healthcare executive who brings experience across the C-suite, having served as CEO, COO and CFO. In recognition of his leadership, Ken was named “Grass Roots Champion from Kansas” by the American Hospital Association and one of the “50 Kansans You Should Know” by Ingram’s Kansas City Business Magazine. Most recently, Ken served as CEO of the 200M Hutchinson Regional Healthcare System in Hutchinson, Kansas. During his 11-year tenure, Ken led a capital project that completed a 6.2 M ED renovation and expansion initiative, grew a hospitalist program that covered the acute inpatient census and created a facility master plan for the system’s five entities, among other achievements. Previously, Ken spent seven years at the 82-bed Galchia Heart Hospital in Wichita, Kansas. As CFO, he strengthened financial controls and operational discipline, which positioned the facility for its sale to HCA in 2012. Ken’s recent accomplishments include: Led initiative that identified 12M in operating margin improvements, including 600K workflow/productivity improvements in lab, respiratory therapy and imaging departments and 1.5M in process/productivity changes in dietary and environmental services departments. Steered development and construction of a 7M ICU replacement that instituted a round design to improve visibility of patients and staff communication. Generated 20M increase in annual cash collection by reducing net A/R to 50 days. Established a regional physician network to include 7 unique service lines in pulmonology, hematology/oncology, radiation oncology, urology, orthopedics, neurosurgery and primary care.
