Dr. Row leads Parkview Health’s value transformation strategy, focusing on aligning care delivery, improving quality, reducing cost and enhancing affordability across the system’s 14 hospitals and more than 300 physician offices. Appointed as Parkview’s first chief value transformation officer in 2024, he is charged with uniting previously siloed value initiatives into a coordinated, systemwide framework to improve efficiency and sustainability. Drawing on his prior experience as chief medical officer for Parkview Physicians Group, he has advanced efforts to standardize care and reduce unwarranted variation, launching care compacts that streamline referrals, testing and transitions between primary and specialty care. Under his leadership, these initiatives have improved access, reduced duplication and saved patients both time and cost. Dr. Row also co-led Parkview’s Covid-19 response and its sepsis reduction program, which uses predictive modeling to prevent severe cases and has shortened hospital stays by up to two days.
