Welcome to the “Lessons from the C-suite” series, featuring Managing Partner Eric Larsen’s conversations with the most influential leaders in health care.<\/em><\/p>\n

In this edition, Prem Reddy, chair, president, and CEO of Prime Healthcare, tells Eric about his system’s approach to working with health plans, how he became known as a turnaround expert, and why leadership is in his DNA.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Q: Dr. Reddy, you have 43 hospitals in 14 states and 43,000 employees. Prime is the fastest-growing healthcare system in the country, as Modern Healthcare<\/em>\u00a0pointed out last year, and the fifth largest for-profit system by hospital count. You’ve taken bets on acquiring distressed and bankrupt hospitals that others have passed over. How have you made these acquisitions work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prem Reddy:<\/strong>\u00a0My experience with Desert Valley, the hospital I built, gave me a level of confidence that I could turn around a failing hospital. Desert Valley was sold, along with my physician practice management (PPM) company, to PhyCor. PhyCor declared bankruptcy soon after that. At the time, I was very disappointed with myself. This was my only experience building a hospital from the ground up, and I felt that I had failed.<\/p>\n

In December 2000, the doctors at Desert Valley called to ask me to come back. I pooled all my money and borrowed money and repurchased it. From 2001 to 2003, I worked as a physician, medical director, and cardiologist. It was a mess at that time, but Desert Valley eventually did extremely well.<\/p>\n

Later, a group of doctors 30 miles away bought a hospital when it was in distress, and then it failed and went into bankruptcy. They asked me to purchase the hospital through bankruptcy and turn it around. And then a third hospital in bankruptcy came to me. That’s how I became a turnaround expert in hospitals.<\/p>\n

Now, we get at least a few calls a week. We can’t help everyone but concentrate on those we can help.<\/p>\n
