Privia Health, a technology-driven, national physician enablement company, has announced a change in its leadership structure. Current CEO Shawn Morris will be retiring and will be replaced by the company's current President and Chief Operating Officer, Parth Mehrotra, effective July 1, 2023.

Succession Planning for a Seamless Transition

Morris had been at the helm of the organization since early 2018, where he led the company from being a private, regional organization to a publicly-traded company with national reach. During his tenure, the company entered eight new states, completed a successful IPO in April 2021, and increased its implemented provider partners by over 125% to over 3,600. Morris has worked closely with the Board of Directors to build and implement a succession plan for a seamless transition.

Mehrotra's Appointment

Mehrotra has been the President and COO of Privia Health since 2018 and the COO of Brighton Health Group, the preceding parent company of Privia Health, from 2016 to 2018. Morris has worked closely with Mehrotra to drive Privia's growth strategy. Mehrotra has demonstrated leadership capabilities, deep healthcare experience, and superb execution of the long-term growth strategy, making him the perfect successor to drive the next phase of Privia's growth and expansion.

Excited to Lead Privia Health

Mehrotra expressed his gratitude towards Morris for his contributions to the company and the entire provider and payer industry. He said that he is excited to lead Privia Health during this time of profound industry change and unprecedented opportunity for physician enablement. He stated that the company will remain focused on building one of the largest primary-care centric delivery networks in the nation, and continuing to work with their employees to serve physician, health system, and payer partners with the highest level of service expertise and collaboration in the industry today.

The Board of Directors engaged in a rigorous succession planning process and unanimously agreed that Mehrotra is the best person to lead the company in its next phase of growth.
