Fort Wayne-based Parkview Health has named Jessica Lee-Hansen as its next chief financial officer. She comes to the health system after more than a decade with Bank of America Securities, where she most recently served as managing director.
Parkview said in her previous role, Lee-Hansen advised health care providers on more than $100 billion in strategic merger and acquisition transactions, equity, and debt capital raises.
“Jessica has served as a strategic financial advisor to an impressive and diverse portfolio of clients, including health systems, physician groups, value-based organizations, and other providers,” Parkview CEO Rick Henvey said in a news release. “Her experience will be vital to supporting Parkview’s continued growth, while also remaining focused on our mission to improve health and inspire well-being.”
Prior to her time at Bank of America, Lee-Hansen worked at Goldman Sachs and Co., where she advised nonprofit health systems and higher education organizations.
“I am honored to join the Parkview team at such a pivotal time in health care and look forward to collaborating alongside extraordinary co-workers to deliver not only world-class care but also great value to our communities,” said Lee-Hansen. “The health care landscape is rapidly changing and Parkview’s mission has never been more relevant. Now is a critical time to focus on financial health and strategic growth to best plan for the future and I’m excited for this tremendous opportunity.”
Lee-Hansen succeeds Jeanne Wickens, who passed away last September.
Parkview Health is the 12th largest employer in Indiana, according to IBJ research. The health system operates 15 hospitals and nearly 300 physician offices in more than 20 counties in Indiana and Ohio.
Last week, Parkview announced plans for a $200 million hospital and medical office building in West Lafayette.
