Geisinger, in partnership with Korn Ferry, is pleased to announce a national search for the Chair of the Department of Radiology.


Geisinger is an integrated health services organization widely recognized for its innovative use of technology and the development of innovative care delivery models. Geisinger had its beginnings in the small community of Danville, located in central Pennsylvania along the northern branch of the Susquehanna River. In 1915, at the age of 85, Abigail A. Geisinger founded the 63 -bed George F. Geisinger Memorial Hospital in memory of her late husband.
Today, Geisinger is regarded as a national model for healthcare transformation for its innovation in delivering superior care at an affordable cost. From its modest beginnings, Geisinger now encompasses an extensive array of health services, providers, and capabilities, including: ten hospital campuses, over 130 clinic sites, nearly 24,000 employees and more than 1,700 employed physicians, and the Geisinger College of Health Sciences.

Geisinger is comprised of ten different institutes that deliver a team-based approach for providers, scientists, researchers, educators and other healthcare professionals at every location, providing consistency and continuity of care. The Department of Radiology sits within the Geisinger Diagnostic Medicine Institute.

The Chair of Radiology is responsible for all aspects of operational excellence, patient safety, and quality in the provision of clinical care and comprehensive radiologic imaging services in alignment with organizational standards and regulatory compliance across the system. The Chair will provide leadership and mentorship to the faculty of radiology including innovative development and management of radiologist recruitment and retention. Further, the Chair will support and oversee the radiology residency and fellowship programs including the development of new programs.

Qualified candidates will hold a Medical Degree (MD, MD/MPH, MD/MBA, MD/PhD or equivalent) and should qualify for the rank of Professor (preferably) or Associate Professor at the Geisinger College of Health Sciences. Board certification is required, and applicants must be eligible for or hold a license in Pennsylvania. The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of value-based care and must be willing to function at a high managerial level in a complex care organization.
