AHP Pacific Regional Conference Keynote Speaker What is it about ‘Free Money’ that Health Care Administrators Don’t Understand? Andy has a unique depth of experience garnered from leadership positions held with other associations, as well as public and private sector entities. Prior to joining OAHHS, Andy spent several years as the director of the software products division for a publicly traded health care information technology company. Andy’s association management experience comes from five years on the executive team at the Washington State Hospital Association, where he was the Vice President of Government and Public Affairs. He joined the Oregon Association as President in 2005. He has also served as health care policy advisor to current U.S. House of Representatives Majority Leader, Representative Steny Hoyer (5th, MD). In addition, Andy has run a successful Congressional campaign and worked for the Maryland State Legislature. Andy is an entrepreneur at heart, having been the COO of a software start up during the .com boom and also as the owner of a multi-state franchise for Ben and Jerry’s ice cream in the Pacific Northwest in the early 90’s. Andy will examine the current challenges and opportunities that strengthen the case for philanthropic support for health care in the west. His lively presentation will include an overview of the general economic case as he answers the question, “What is it about ‘free money’ that health care administrators don’t understand?” Andy will also take part in the panel discussion immediately following this session.
