About Jill

When I started as the CEO of a Federally Qualified Health Center, the business was struggling to attract new patients, hire high-quality clinicians, integrate behavioral health into primary care, meet the 330 grant requirements, and bring in revenue to keep the doors open.

You might be experiencing the same challenges with your health center. You might be new to your position and unsure where to start or what to prioritize. Maybe you’ve been there for a long time, but you want to scale up or pare down services. I can completely relate!

I served as the CEO of PureView Health Center, an FQHC in Helena, East Helena, and Lincoln, MT for 8 years. I left that position in February 2023 to help my son through some health issues.

What I accomplished during my time as CEO:

  • Successful rebrand campaign in 2015
  • Launched a very successful marketing campaign in 2015
  • Doubled the number of unique patients
  • Recovered the organization from a nearly $1 Million deficit to having nearly $5 Million in reserves
  • Tripled the capacity of our services by attracting high-quality primary care providers, dentists, hygienists, counselors, psychiatrists, and clinical pharmacists
  • Opened 2 onsite pharmacies (340b and non-340b)
  • Grew the annual revenue by 5x
  • Partnered with a developer to build a clinic site in downtown Helena
  • Became one of the first health centers in the country to get 100% on an Operational Site Visit
  • Successfully separated the health center from the county to become a private non-profit
  • Opened 3 new sites including a school-based health center
  • Stood up a drive-thru community COVID-19 testing and vaccination center, one of the first in Montana
  • Led the staff through a global pandemic without any layoffs
  • Received the Employer of Choice Award for large businesses in our area in 2023

I am passionate about helping FQHCs succeed. That’s why I offer executive and leadership coaching services. I also have developed resources to help you succeed as the CEO, medical director, dental director, COO, CFO, etc. I’ll focus on supporting you while you focus on delivering high-quality care to your communities.
