WASHINGTON – The Federation of American Hospitals (FAH) announced today that Prime Healthcare Services Chairman, President and CEO Dr. Prem Reddy will be the organization’s Chair for the 2021 calendar year. Serving with him will be a new slate of Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors is comprised of the executives of FAH’s member companies. Dr. Reddy is taking the gavel from 2020 FAH Chair David Dill, Chairman and CEO of LifePoint Health.
“Dr. Prem Reddy has dedicated his career to saving lives and saving hospitals. As a board-certified physician, he brings an important practitioner’s perspective to our Board, and we look forward to his leadership. As we continue to confront the COVID-19 crisis, health care is going to be a top priority for the new Congress and incoming Biden Administration. I am confident that with Dr. Reddy at the helm the Federation will be well-positioned to meet the challenges of this new year,” said Chip Kahn, FAH President and CEO.
“It is an honor to be chosen to serve as Chair of the Federation this year. I look forward to working with my colleagues on the Board and the FAH team as we fight our way out of the COVID crisis and start to plan for a post-pandemic world. A new Administration in Washington will bring new opportunities and challenges, and I am confident that FAH will continue doing what it has always done – work to make sure federal policy is focused on the best interests of the patients we serve,” said Dr. Reddy.
