Hospitals across the U.S. are seeking new CEOs as healthcare C-suites continue to evolve.
Some organizations are eliminating individual hospital CEO roles in favor of regional leadership models, especially as health systems grow. Others have expanded hospital CEOs’ responsibilities in 2025 to include oversight of additional facilities as C-suite teams shrink.
Amid these changes, CEO turnover remains elevated, up 25% year over year in May, including through retirements and resignations. Becker’s reported more than 100 hospital and health system CEO exits in the first half of 2026.
Here are nine hospitals and health systems that recently posted job openings for CEOs.
