Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warsaw, New York, July 2, 2024<\/strong>\u00a0Wyoming County Community Health System (WCCHS) announced today that CEO David Kobis will be leaving his position at the end of 2024.\u00a0 Asked about the reason for his departure, Kobis stated that he was very pleased with the progress the health system had made over the last two years but wanted to spend more time with his family in Florida.\u00a0 Kobis joined the health system in 2022. (File photo)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

WCCHS has made tremendous improvements since the COVID-19 crisis.  The hospital recently announced that it had received approval to convert to a Critical Access designation, providing an additional $3M or more in annual revenue.  Additionally, a number of new physicians have joined WCCHS, including orthopedics, general surgery, pain management, cardiology, hospitalists, and ophthalmology.  After many years of financial losses, including $22M in 2022, the health system reduced the deficit to $9M in 2023 and anticipates a loss below $5M in 2024. WCCHS is optimistic to reach breakeven status over the next 18 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhile we are saddened by Dave\u2019s departure, we appreciate his strong leadership over the last two years,\u201d said Rebecca Ryan, Chairwoman, Wyoming County Board of Supervisors and Richard Kosmerl, President, WCCHS Board of Managers.  \u201cHe brought stability to an organization recovering from the sudden passing of former CEO Joe McTernan and the COVID-19 pandemic.  Dave helped put WCCHS on the right path to long term financial stability and growth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WCCHS will begin a search for a replacement CEO immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
