“After a comprehensive search, we are pleased to welcome Joe to
Conifer,” said Ron Rittenmeyer, Executive Chairman and CEO of Tenet

“I am excited to join Conifer, which has a great reputation of
high-value service delivery, real-time solutions and efficiency,”
said Eazor. “This is a momentous time in the company’s evolution
with significant opportunities to accelerate growth and reach, both
leading up to and following the spinoff. I am eager to get started
and work with the team to further differentiate Conifer as a leader
in its space.”

during the search process, will return to his previous role of
Chief Operating Officer of Conifer, reporting to Eazor.
Rittenmeyer continued, “I want to thank Kyle for leading Conifer
over the last several months, in addition to his many contributions
across the Tenet enterprise for more than 15 years. I look forward
to continuing to work with Kyle as he returns to his role as
COO.”
