Wealth Management Society of NW Ohio
March 2019 meeting
Today’s Health Care Challenges:
So Who’s Going to Pay the Bill?
Speaker: Dan Wakeman, President and CEO of St. Luke’s Hospital, Maumee OH
Dan Wakeman will present the challenges hospitals (and other care providers) face as the business model of healthcare transitions from financial rewards based on volume to rewards based on quality and value. This transition has been accelerated by the large influx of people enrolling into government-sponsored programs (Medicare and Medicaid) and the increase in consumerism brought about by the significant increase in high-deductible commercial insurance plans. Dan will describe how St. Luke’s is well-positioned for this transition and how St. Luke’s plans to navigate these turbulent healthcare waters.
Dan has served as St. Luke’s Hospital’s CEO since February 2008. Prior he held CEO positions at Mercy Memorial Hospital in Monroe, War Memorial Hospital in Sault Saint Marie; Herrick Memorial Hospital in Tecumseh all in Michigan. He has been in healthcare administration for 30 years.
St. Luke’s joined the ProMedica Health System in 2010. The Federal Trade Commission ordered a divestiture in July 1, 2016 to be completed by January 1, 2018.
He was a member of the Michigan Health and Hospital Corporate Board (MHA). He served on the Reimbursement Negotiations Committee - MHA/Blue Cross of Michigan and the Michigan Emergency Medical Authority Board. He was a Director of the Caymich Insurance Company, and was a board member of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, Ninth District.
Dan has been a member of the Ohio Hospital Association Task Force on the State Budget, Executive Committee - Hospital Council of Northwest Ohio, Coverys Company Advisory Board, Genacross Board, Lutheran Services and Vantage Hospitals of Ohio Board.
Dan has a Bachelor’s of Science in Administration from the University of Michigan Dearborn, Master of Science in Health Services Administration from Central Michigan University and is a Fellow in the American College of Healthcare Executives.
