Dr. Compton-Phillips announced her departure from the 51-hospital system in a Sept. 15 LinkedIn post.
“I have decided that my path in helping fix a broken healthcare system lies outside of Providence,” she wrote. “My colleagues there remain valiant leaders in creating health for a better world, but my personal path needs to be focused on simplifying health.”
Dr. Compton-Phillips did not specify what her next career move will be but said, “working on high-performing integrated delivery systems and implementing patient focused, value-based care is my calling.”
Her departure comes about two months after Providence announced plans to adopt a new operating model that includes a leaner executive team and new divisional structure.
