The Tahoe Forest Hospital District (TFHD) Board of Directors announced that Anna M. Roth, RN, MS, MPH, has been appointed President and Chief Executive Officer of Tahoe Forest Health System (TFHS). The selection of Ms. Roth comes after an extensive, months-long search following the departure of former CEO, Harry Weis, in June.
Ms. Roth comes to TFHS from Contra Costa Health, where she served as CEO for the past fifteen years. In that position, she addressed the spectrum of issues that shaped the health of Contra Costa County’s one million residents, with special attention to its most vulnerable populations. During her tenure, she played a key role in one of the largest integrated health systems within county government, overseeing the unprecedented growth of a $3 billion health system.
At Contra Costa Health, Ms. Roth was responsible for strategy, planning, and operational oversight of the county’s medical center and 11 clinics. Her areas of responsibility included behavioral and physical healthcare, a managed care organization, a local public health department, county homeless services, the county emergency medical services (EMS) system, hazardous materials, and environmental health.
Ms. Roth holds a master’s degree from the University of California, San Francisco, and a Master of Public Health from Harvard University. She is a registered nurse with over 30 years of healthcare experience and an Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Quality Improvement Fellow. Additionally, Ms. Roth has served on a variety of nonprofit boards and has been actively engaged in shaping policy initiatives that drive meaningful advancement in healthcare access.
“On behalf of the Tahoe Forest Health System, I am excited to welcome Anna Roth as our new chief executive officer,” said Michael McGarry, chair of the Tahoe Forest Hospital District board of directors. “Anna’s vast experience in health care administration and dedication to community health will elevate our commitment to excellence and care for all we serve. We look forward to Anna’s spirit, enthusiasm, and leadership as we continue serving the North Tahoe communities.”
“I am deeply honored to join an organization that values excellence, compassion, and community-driven care,” said Ms. Roth. “I am eager to collaborate with the dedicated staff and providers of TFHS, and I look forward to addressing the need for expanded access to care, enhancing the overall patient experience, and strengthening community partnerships.”
