Trudi McKenna, a longtime executive supporting value-based physician groups in the Northeast, has been appointed the Chief Operating Officer of America’s Physician Groups, effective immediately. She will draw on her more than 20 years of experience in overseeing APG’s internal operations and finances, and drive excellence in APG’s support of its more than 300 member physician groups, said Susan Dentzer, APG’s President and Chief Executive Officer, to whom Ms. McKenna will report. “Trudi’s career has been defined by building the operational and financial infrastructure that allows physician-led groups to deliver better care, reduce costs, and grow sustainably,” Dentzer said. “We couldn’t be happier that she has taken on this critically important role for our organization and look forward to having her meet our members and learn more about how APG can best serve them and advance our collective interests.” Before joining APG, Trudi served as Chief Financial & Administrative Officer at SoNE Health (Southern New England Healthcare Organization, Inc.), a physician-owned clinically integrated network (CIN) in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Over her decade-long tenure, she spearheaded the CIN’s effort to generate more than $115 million in shared savings and incentives for the network’s independent and employed providers; managed a more than $25 million annual budget with consistent positive results; and led the organization successfully through major transitions. Trudi began her health care career at Jefferson Health in Philadelphia and served on the corporate financial management team and as the interim chief financial officer. She later joined Hartford HealthCare in Connecticut, where she helped build that organization’s clinically integrated network, Integrated Care Partners, from the ground up. Trudi earned a Bachelor of Science degree in finance from the University of South Florida and a Master of Arts degree from Temple University. She previously served on the board of directors and as treasurer of a Connecticut Federally Qualified Health Center, Community Health Services. Trudi succeeds Jennifer Jackman, APG’s former COO, who as previously announced died tragically in an accident earlier this year. |
