Throughout his career, Snow has held numerous executive-level positions in healthcare, including president of HCA Inc.’s Gulf Coast Division, executive vice president and chief operating officer of HealthSouth Corporation, president and chief executive officer of Surgical Care Affiliates, president and chief executive officer of Wellmont Health System, and chief operating officer of Amedisys, Inc. Snow earned his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Alabama and a Master's Degree in Business Administration from Troy State University.
“I am deeply honored to assume the position of president and CEO of TeamHealth, and I am very proud to lead this team of driven healthcare professionals,” said Snow. “Healthcare is experiencing unprecedented change, and TeamHealth is well-positioned with the right leadership and strategy to succeed. TeamHealth’s continued success requires collaboration, innovation, leadership and integrity.
