As chief information officer, Wasserman will lead more than 6,700 colleagues in the Information Technology Group (ITG), which provides global IT strategy, solutions and support for HCA Healthcare and its hospitals and sites of care. He will oversee the group’s array of solutions including infrastructure, cloud, automation, data engineering, software development, enterprise systems and clinical technology initiatives.

“Throughout his career, Chad has demonstrated a strong ability to drive technology solutions across a wide range of business areas,” said Sam Hazen, chief executive officer of HCA Healthcare. “I’m confident in his ability to lead our growing technology agenda to advance digital capabilities across the company.”

Wasserman has been with HCA Healthcare for 28 years and previously served as senior vice president and chief operating officer for ITG. Throughout his career with the company, he has served in a variety of senior leadership positions including vice president of ITG Service Line and Corporate Solutions, vice president of ITG Digital Patient Experience and vice president of ITG Infrastructure Services and Operations.

Paslick is retiring after serving as chief information officer for 11 years. He joined HCA Healthcare’s ITG in 1985, going on to become the department’s first chief operating officer in 2010. Under Paslick’s leadership, HCA Healthcare invested in the mobility of the company’s workforce through strategic partnerships to support clinical care and deployed one of the largest iOS platforms in the country, which enabled mobile capability for the company’s more than 93,000 nurses. Paslick also led the development of new IT units and transformed HCA Healthcare’s field-based IT operations, including the launch of the company’s Clinical Data Warehouse. Paslick also played a key role in transitioning HCA Healthcare to the Cloud, designed to help create a secure and dynamic data analytics platform through a partnership with Google Cloud. He was also instrumental in beginning the planned enterprise-wide transition to Meditech Expanse.

“Marty’s service to HCA Healthcare has been revolutionary for the company and has set the course for our technology agenda,” said Hazen. “Under his leadership, our technological capabilities have greatly expanded, creating solutions to support our caregivers and ultimately lead to better care for our patients. We wish him all the best in his retirement.”
