Steve Anderson, who was named CEO of the St. Francis Campus in 2018, is resigning from his role to start a new “private venture,” according to a hospital press release shared with WIBW. 

Mr. Anderson led the hospital through an ownership transition after St. Francis was acquired in 2017 by a joint venture company formed by Kansas City-based University of Kansas Health System and Nashville, Tenn.-based Ardent Health Services. 

“Steve’s leadership at our St. Francis Campus came at a critical time, as The University of Kansas Health System and Ardent worked to ensure this long-standing health care institution could continue to serve Topeka and surrounding communities for generations to come,” said University of Kansas Health System President and CEO Bob Page in an April 4 news release. “We are grateful for his support, as we build on the growing opportunities in the area to provide high-quality care.”

A national search for the hospital’s next CEO is underway.
