Rochester (N.Y.) Regional Health System has named Eric Bieber, MD, president and CEO, effective Nov. 1.
Dr. Bieber was unanimously approved by the board in late September.
"Dr. Bieber's extensive clinical and operational executive experience make him uniquely qualified to successfully lead Rochester Regional Health System on our journey to improve patient health, improve the care experience and reduce health care costs throughout the region," said Bob Dobies, the health system's board chair.
Mark Clement and Warren Hern, the current co-CEOs of Rochester Regional Health System, will continue with the system until Nov. 30.
Prior to this role, Dr. Bieber served in a dual role at University Hospitals in Cleveland as both the president of the system's Community Hospitals West Region and the president of its accountable care organizations. There, he was responsible for the creation and leadership of six ACOs, UH's Western Region Hospitals and the UH graduate medical education program.
