Most recently, Ms. Owens served as the hospital’s quality improvement and risk management director.

“I love this community and was born at this hospital,” Ms. Owens said. “I have deep roots in the community and TCMH, as my mother, Becky Scott, retired from TCMH after 40 years in utilization review and continues to work part time.”   

The nurse leader told Ozark Radio News that it’s important to her to create an environment that not only empowers staff but encourages continued growth and improvement in their roles.

“I want our staff to know that they will always have the support behind them and access to the resources that they need to be able to provide the best possible care to their patients,” Ms. Owens said.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
