LYNN — The Lynn Community Health Center (LCHC) appointed Ryan Sullivan as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), starting this week.
Sullivan previously worked at Massachusetts General Hospital for the past 19 years, where he held a variety of roles, which included planning and opening new buildings, and the director level of financial management.
His most recent role at Mass General was as the administrative director for the Center for Genomic Medicine, which required strategic and financial management, human resources, compliance, safety, facilities, and operational leadership.
Sullivan is also a certified nurse practitioner and has worked in the LCHC Urgent Care since 2017.
“I am excited to join the team,” said Sullivan. “The talented staff of LCHC cares for the most vulnerable patients among us, and the shift to capitated payment models will allow our team to focus on quality, social determinants of health, and personalized care to implement a sustainable Ideal Care Model that integrates our medical, behavioral, dental, optical, and ancillary services.”
Sullivan has an MBA from Suffolk University, an MS in Nursing from Boston College, a Post-MS in Nursing from the University of Massachusetts Boston, and an MS in Clinical Operations from Harvard Medical School.
“As LCHC continues to grow and move towards implementation of the Ideal Care Model and capitation service model, Ryan has the experience and knowledge of the health center to be able to guide us to success that is centered on our mission and core values,” said CEO of LCHC, Dr. Kiame Mahaniah.
LCHC’s previous CFO of 35 years, Kim MacLeod, took a position as Executive Director of Finance at LCHC and will be helping Sullivan onboard and transition to his new position.
