Dr. Salverson drives transformational initiatives that improve patient outcomes and operational performance. She oversees 530 employees across the 17-hospital ministry, spanning tertiary medical centers, rural hospitals, a specialty pharmacy, community pharmacies and home infusion. In fiscal year 2024, the system dispensed nearly 11 million doses of medication and filled 325,000 prescriptions. Her efforts have led to major achievements, including establishing an integrated distribution center that, combined with a systemwide perpetual inventory system, eliminated $2.1 million in excess inventory across 400 medical group clinics within six months. Within two years, the OSF Specialty Pharmacy achieved URAC accreditation and increased revenue by 22.5%. Dr. Salverson’s leadership also earned recognition from the Illinois Council of Health-System Pharmacy for integrated telepharmacy services and led to OSF HealthCare being designated as a center of excellence in medication-use safety by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists’ pharmacy practice accreditation commission. With executive oversight of clinical, financial and quality performance, she ensures patients receive the right medication, in the right setting, at the right cost.
