Mr. Querciagrossa leads efforts to address access to care in rural areas including emergency services. He played a pivotal role in developing a model of care to support Illinois Valley communities when St. Margaret’s Health – Spring Valley (Ill.) closed in June 2023, working with his teams to quickly establish local options for urgent care, primary care, occupational health and rehabilitation services. He also leads the opening of a second campus of OSF Saint Elizabeth Medical Center in rural Peru, Ill. He has overseen Illinois Valley job growth and creation by spearheading efforts to hire over 400 former St. Margaret Health employees and more than 50 physicians and advanced medical providers. He oversees eight hospitals, several of which achieved national rankings. OSF brought Perry Memorial Hospital into its ministry two years ago and renamed it OSF Saint Clare Medical Center. The critical access hospital serves residents of Princeton, Ill. and surrounding communities.
