Decades of Experience at the Highest Levels of Healthcare Strategy

Scott Pingree brings more than two decades of senior leadership experience in healthcare strategy to every engagement. His career spans some of the most complex and consequential healthcare organizations in the Mountain West — from the largest health system in Utah to one of the nation's top cancer centers.

At Intermountain Healthcare, Scott served in Chief Strategy Officer roles across three regions over 13 years — including the South Region, Central Region (Intermountain Medical Center and seven hospitals serving 1.4 million people), and Community Care, where he held full-risk management responsibility for 850,000 members and system-wide population health strategy.

As Chief Strategy Officer at Huntsman Cancer Institute, Scott established the institution's first-ever strategy office, merging the research and clinical care strategic functions of the only NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center serving five states. He negotiated a landmark revenue-sharing agreement with the University of Utah Health Sciences and contributed to multiple strategic alliances that expanded patient access and research capability.

Scott is currently Managing Principal of the Salt Lake City office of Health Management Associates, formerly Leavitt Partners — one of the nation's preeminent healthcare consulting firms.

Scott holds a Master of Public Administration from Harvard Kennedy School (statistics, economics, and policy analysis) and an MBA in Finance from BYU Marriott School of Business. He has been quoted in the Harvard Business Review, Modern Healthcare, US News & World Report, and Healthleaders Media, and has presented at national conferences as a subject matter expert in population health and care innovation.

His approach is defined by what clients describe as rigor without ego — the ability to bring analytical depth and executive-level clarity without the consultant's edge that so often gets in the way of trust.
