Former Maryland governor brings public health, healthcare innovation and executive leadership expertise to esteemed Board

NASHVILLE, Tenn.: Radiology Partners (RP), the leading technology-enabled radiology practice in the U.S. through its affiliated practices and Mosaic Clinical Technologies™ (Mosaic), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RP, announced today that former Gov. Larry Hogan has joined its Board of Directors. A nationally recognized leader and cancer survivor, Gov. Hogan brings his deep expertise in public health, visionary leadership and drive for clinical innovation to support RP’s physician-led mission to transform radiology and advance patient-centered care.

“Gov. Hogan brings a unique combination of executive leadership, healthcare policy perspective and personal experience that aligns deeply with our mission,” said Rich Whitney, RP board chair and CEO. “He understands the importance of timely diagnosis, clinical innovation and coordinated care, and he brings insights that will be incredibly valuable as RP continues working to drive clinical, technology and AI innovation to improve patient outcomes.”

Hogan served as the 62nd governor of Maryland from 2015 to 2023 and as chairman of the National Governors Association from 2019 to 2020. Shortly after taking office, he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and continued to lead the state while undergoing treatment ­­– an experience that shaped his advocacy for early detection, research and innovation in cancer care.

During his tenure, Hogan advanced healthcare and life sciences innovation, including the launch of Maryland’s $216 million Cancer Moonshot initiative to expand cancer detection, treatment, research capacity and workforce development. His administration also prioritized healthcare affordability and access and guided the state through the pandemic, coordinating cross-sector efforts to expand testing, vaccination and the effective delivery of care.

“I’m honored to join the board of Radiology Partners in support of its mission to transform radiology,” said Hogan. “I know firsthand the importance of timely, accurate diagnosis for patients and families alike. As governor, and as chair of the National Governors Association during COVID-19, I saw the essential role physicians and clinical innovation play in strengthening care delivery and improving outcomes. I look forward to working closely with the Radiology Partners team and taking part in the exciting transformative innovation that is underway.”

Gov. Hogan’s perspective, informed by an accomplished public service career and personal healthcare experiences, will support the long-term focus held by RP and Mosaic on physician-led excellence, clinical and technology innovation and high-quality radiology services at scale.
