NAACOS Names Jeff Micklos as Next CEO
Washington, D.C. – The NAACOS Board of Directors has selected Jeff Micklos as the next President and CEO to replace Clif Gaus who is retiring. Jeff brings an in-depth understanding of provider needs in value-based care along with a wealth of experience from more than two decades in health care associations. Currently, Jeff serves as the Executive Director of the Health Care Transformation Task Force, a partner in NAACOS advocacy, and he has also held senior leadership positions with the Federation of American Hospitals.
Led by the NAACOS Board Chair Emily Brower, SVP of Clinical Integration and Physician Services at Trinity Health, NAACOS conducted a nationwide search resulting in strong and competitive candidates for this role. Ultimately Jeff was chosen for his knowledge of value-based care, demonstrated success achieving association goals, and well-respected reputation in the value-based care community. “We are looking forward to Jeff’s leadership to execute our new strategic plan that will expand NAACOS membership and mission, enhance learning and education, and increase engagement with other health care stakeholders,” said Brower. Jeff will officially join NAACOS later this fall and noted “I am excited to take on the NAACOS leadership role and advance the organization’s strategic direction. I look forward to the organization continuing to thrive and serve its members with distinction.”
