Emory Healthcare has experienced a 16% revenue increase from fiscal year 2023 to 2024, primarily driven by Dr. Joon Lee's leadership. Instead of pursuing mergers, the organization emphasized service expansion, operational efficiencies, and improved revenue collection. A critical change was the restructuring of the leadership framework, replacing individual hospital presidents with regional leaders for two divisions—university hospitals and regional hospitals.
