Ms. Thomas leads financial strategy for the area’s largest hospital system, which comprises seven hospitals, more than 1,500 beds, and 11,000 team members across Florida’s Flagler, northern Lake and Volusia counties. She is responsible for overseeing financial operations and long-term planning for a growing region that employs more than 11,000 people and includes 450 employed physicians and advanced practice providers. Under her leadership, the division delivered its strongest financial performance in 2024, driving year-over-year growth in revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. These results supported the system’s $500 million in reinvestment across the region, including a freestanding emergency room in St. Johns County, a new hospital and cancer center in Flagler County, a medical office building in Lake County and a major hospital expansion in Volusia County. Ms. Thomas has helped to reduce patient length of stay, improve efficiency and guide smart, strategic investments that meet community needs. She joined AdventHealth in 1996 and has held a range of leadership roles, including chief transformation officer, where she led the system’s $660 million EHR implementation across more than 1,200 sites of care.
