ChristianaCare President and CEO Janice E. Nevin, M.D., MPH, has been recognized as a top business leader by Delaware Online/The News Journal.

For a fifth year in a row, Delaware Online/The News Journal recognized “the folks who continue to shape Delaware’s future … those who have a big impact in the First State — from leaders in health care, law and business, as well as movers and shakers in the arenas of dining, entertainment, social media and more.”

Since 2014, Nevin has overseen ChristianaCare’s ascension as a national health care leader in the areas of quality and safety, health equity, virtual health and value-based care. At the same time, she has guided ChristianaCare’s expansion of services and programs throughout the region including Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

“I am particularly proud of our focus on quality and safety, health equity, improving access and driving down health care costs while increasing the value of our care,” Nevin said. “We are doing that through programs like Hospital Care at Home, which provides virtual and in-person care by a team of physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and other providers. And our Medicaid accountable care organization has shown great reductions in spending – $6.2 million in 2023 alone – while improving the quality of care for nearly 30,000 Medicaid beneficiaries in Delaware.

“Our quality and patient safety metrics have been nationally recognized by U.S. News and World Report, Newsweek, the American College of Surgeons and many more. We couldn’t do any of this without our great staff, who inspire me every day. Our talented caregivers are truly ChristianaCare’s greatest asset.”

A visionary and collaborative health care leader, Nevin has led ChristianaCare’s transformation from a health care system to a system that truly impacts health. She is nationally recognized as a pioneer and thought leader in value-based care and population health, including her belief that truly great health care is built on the values of love and excellence. These values are exemplified in her commitment to health equity and making high-quality care more accessible and affordable for everyone in the communities that ChristianaCare serves.
