Recently, as a leader in the Transformation Management Office responsible for Vizient’s enterprise-wide strategic transformation, Molly redesigned Vizient’s spend management delivery model in partnership with cross-functional teams representing business units, sales, account management, and corporate strategy with accountability to senior executives and, ultimately Vizient’s provider-members.
Molly was also previously responsible for Vizient’s national senior supply chain Member Networks connecting more than 320 provider organizations, nationally, including system-level executives and medical/clinical leaders in supply chain and the Large IDN Supply Network (LISN), representing 20-25 of the nation's largest health systems and more than 500 acute care facilities to: share leading practices and data, influence the industry, and develop high-value differentiating solutions
Upon initially joining Vizient, Molly was responsible for strategy and operations, including Board of Directors and Finance Committee activities, of the MNS Supply Chain Network, LLC. Molly built and led a team in program development, sourcing, pharmacy, and third-party analytics to deliver an average of $27M recognized annual value to MedStar Health, Novant Health, and Sentara Healthcare. During her tenure, Molly established the MNS Clinical Leadership Council comprised of CMOs and supply chain executives, enabling collaboration by nearly 40 physician leaders in clinical variation reduction.
In the provider sector, Molly was responsible for the clinical program development of Carolinas Trauma Network, a clinically integrated, enterprise-wide service line advancing full-continuum trauma/injury care across 900+ locations. In her leadership role at Atrium Health, Molly served as a co-investigator on an mTBI participatory action clinical research study in partnership with the CTN Research Center of Excellence and launched an original cross-continuum program evaluation strategy in partnership with Advanced Analytics to demonstrate a positive impact on clinical process and outcome metrics through CTN guidelines. Her efforts inspired a NCOEMS research initiative. Molly also developed CTN outreach strategy including an mTBI feature during Super Bowl XLVII.
Molly completed her administrative residency at the corporate office of MedStar Health under the President and CEO, then held leadership positions in system operations, performance improvement, and orthopedics/surgery service line administration in the Maryland and DC markets.
As a two-time grad of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Molly minored in English, received her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, and later completed her Master of Healthcare Administration. She now serves on the Next Generation Committee of the Board of UNC’s Kenan-Flagler Business School and a member of the 100 Women initiative. Molly also travels back to volunteer in Baltimore with MedStar, specifically focused on community programs to advance allied health workforce development.
Molly and her husband Joe are busy and happy parents to Ben (9) and Mary Blair (7) – as well as Gracie Gray (their 2-year-old Beagle). North Carolina is home where you will find them racing around Charlotte from soccer to dance to piano, baseball, basketball, climbing, swim – or out to the coast on Ocean Isle Beach.
