The Vermont Association of Hospitals and Health Systems has named Jeffrey Tieman the new president and CEO, effective in August, according to VTDigger.org.

Since then, VAHHS vice presidents of finance and policy — Mike Del Trecco and Jill Olson, respectively — have been serving as co-CEOs while the association conducted a national search for a permanent leader.

Before that, he was the Washington bureau chief for Modern Healthcare and served as a spokesperson for various healthcare organizations, according to the report.
