UnityPoint Health And Presbyterian Healthcare Services No Longer Pursuing Partnership, Scott Kizer Named Next President And CEO Of Unitypoint Health

Written By Alex Strauss

Earlier this year, UnityPoint Health and Presbyterian Healthcare Services announced their intent to form a new healthcare company. After significant planning and consideration, the two organizations will no longer be pursuing the transaction.

“We believe this decision allows us to better meet the needs of our patients, team members, communities, and key stakeholders,” said Sally Gray, RN, UPH Board Chair. “As we move forward, UnityPoint Health is focused on identifying new, innovative ways to deliver low-cost, high-quality care to those we serve.”

As a result, Clay Holderman will depart UnityPoint Health to explore other professional opportunities and we wish him well. The UnityPoint Health Board of Directors has named Scott Kizer as President and CEO of UnityPoint Health.

“We’re confident in Scott’s leadership going forward, and we remain committed to showing our people, patients and communities how much they matter,” said Gray.
