University of Iowa Health Care is welcoming candidates to campus in its search for the next CEO of UI Hospitals & Clinics and associate vice president for UI Health Care.
The search started in August 2023 following the arrival of Denise Jamieson, MD, MPH, the university’s vice president for medical affairs and dean of the Carver College of Medicine.
The search committee is co-chaired by Nitin Karandikar, MD, PhD, chair and departmental executive officer of the UI Department of Pathology; and Peter Matthes, UI senior advisor to the president and vice president for external affairs.
The next CEO will serve as a key member of UI Health Care’s executive leadership team and report to Jamieson.
Since 2022, this position has been led on an interim basis by Kimberly Hunter, DNP, MBA, RN, NEA-BC, who is also the chief nurse executive of UI Hospitals & Clinics.
