The Vice President of Radiology and Imaging Services serves as the senior executive leader responsible for strategic, operational, and financial oversight of imaging services across an 18-hospital, 70-clinic integrated health system. This executive provides vision, leadership, and expertise in the design and delivery of imaging services that support clinical excellence, operational efficiency, growth, and system-wide integration.

Through the merger of Froedtert and Thedacare, this leader will play a pivotal role in unifying imaging operations, aligning clinical and administrative practices, standardizing protocols, and optimizing capital and human resources to create a cohesive, high‑performing imaging service line across the enterprise.

• Develop and execute a unified, enterprise-wide imaging strategy that aligns with the system’s overall clinical and financial goals.
• Lead the integration of imaging departments from the two legacy health systems into a single, cohesive structure.
• Treat imaging as a true system-level service line—establishing growth, access, and quality goals to position imaging as a differentiator for patient care and physician alignment.
• Advance the long-term vision for imaging that drives value creation, efficiency, and scalability across all service sites.
• Partner strategically with technology and service vendors (e.g., GE, Siemens, Philips, Sodexo) to optimize system-wide pricing, lifecycle management, and technology deployment.

• Oversee all aspects of imaging operations, including hospital- and clinic-based radiology departments, centralized scheduling, pre‑authorization, and revenue cycle processes.
• Establish centralized shared services functions—such as PACS, AI integration, vendor‑neutral archiving, analytics, HTM/Biomed support, and radiation safety.
• Ensure standardized imaging protocols, evidence‑based utilization management, and consistent quality and safety practices system-wide.
• Direct labor management, workforce planning, and operational performance improvement initiatives across all imaging sites.
• Drive efficiency and cost reduction through consolidation, outsourcing (where appropriate), and process redesign.

• Partner closely with physician and professional radiology groups (MCW and Lucent) to ensure effective clinical integration, performance accountability, and alignment on quality and service standards.
• Support Radiation Safety and Medical Physics programs to maintain regulatory compliance and patient/staff safety.
• Collaborate with Population Health, Care Management, and Service Line leadership to align imaging utilization with clinical pathways and at‑risk population management.
• Serve as primary liaison and relationship manager with Rayus Radiology partner.

• Manage a technology asset portfolio exceeding $250M, ensuring disciplined capital planning, procurement, and value‑based vendor negotiations.
• Oversee imaging financial performance, budgeting, and productivity metrics.
• Identify and implement value opportunities, including appropriate imaging utilization and reduction of unnecessary inpatient imaging.

• Lead post‑merger integration of imaging operations, technology platforms, and culture between the two legacy systems.
• Design and implement an enterprise‑wide governance structure that balances system‑wide consistency with regional flexibility.
• Drive communication, transparency, and engagement across leadership teams and frontline staff during the integration process.
• Ensure matrixed reporting and regional equity are addressed within the new organizational design.
