Boyd Chappell has replaced former CFO Jodi Howe, who left the organization back in April.
Jones Memorial Hospital—a Wellsville, New York-based hospital with 49 total staffed beds and over $121 million in total patient revenue—has named Boyd Chappell the new chief financial officer.
"Boyd comes to Jones with an impressive amount of healthcare experience and will be a wonderful addition to the administrative team," Jones Memorial Hospital CEO James Helms said in the announcement. "He also has extensive experience with the unique challenges that face those of us in rural medicine."
Chappell is taking over for former Jones Memorial Health CFO Jodi Howe, who left the organization back in April to pursue an opportunity with Alfred University. Howe served as CFO for both St. James Hospital and Jones Memorial Hospital.
"At Jones Memorial, Jodi provided vital direction and support during the launch of a capital improvement project as well as the full implementation of our new accounting and enterprise reporting systems," Helms said in a separate announcement. "Jodi has been a key financial leader for both of our organizations during the pandemic, and for that we thank her."
Chappell is joining Jones Memorial Hospital from Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital, a Michigan-based multi-specialty hospital where he served as chief financial officer and chief operating officer for more than six years. Chappell has also held financial positions at several healthcare facilities in Utah and Alaska.
"I am excited to be joining the Jones Memorial admin team," Chappell said in the release. "The combination of the rural setting and the affiliation with the University of Rochester system is an appealing blend that will allow me to build on my prior experience while providing occasions for professional growth and development."
