Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital Announces New Administrator

Scott Perryman has been named senior vice president/administrator of Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH). The new executive will take the position on Sept. 30, according to Kerry Heinrich, CEO, Loma Linda University Medical Center (LLUMC). Perryman comes to Loma Linda from Dallas, Texas, where he was senior vice president for operations and strategic planning at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. There from November 2011, he was responsible for the hospital’s strategic plan, business development and operations. “We’re eager to welcome Scott to this new position, created by the separate licensure of our Children’s Hospital last November,” said Terry Hansen, chief operating officer of LLUMC. “He will bring extraordinary talent and accomplishment to our management team.” Among his successes at the Dallas facility were developing operational and financial improvement, and leading successful turnarounds of provider organizations. Perryman’s prior positions include senior VP for hospital finance at Community Hospital Corporation of Plano, Texas; senior VP of Argyle Solutions of Irving, Texas; assistant executive director, Scott and White Health System, Temple, Texas; and director of finance, Duke University Health System, Durham, North Carolina.
