Mr. Erickson joined the medical center as CEO in February 2015, just after Ontario, Calif.-based Prime Healthcare Services purchased the facility from St. Louis-based Ascension. Prior to joining St. Joseph, Mr. Erickson was CEO of St. Francis Health in Topeka, Kan. Since then, there have been a number of changes at St. Joseph, including the decision to close its birthing center on Oct. 31. The hospital has not responded to a request for comment on Mr. Erickson’s departure from the Kansas City Business Journal.
Jodi Fincher, previously the hospital’s SNO, is now serving as interim CEO.
