Intermountain Healthcare has announced that this fall Dr. Marc Harrison will leave his post as the company's president and CEO, a position he has held since 2016.

Harrison has accepted a leadership position to run a healthcare platform business for American venture capital firm General Catalyst.

The Intermountain Healthcare Board plans to name an interim president and CEO and will conduct a national search for a replacement this fall. 

General Catalyst confirmed Marc Harrison is joining the firm and said it would have additional information in the coming months.

"Marc has helped spur innovation across our organization during his six-year tenure," said chair of the Intermountain Healthcare Board, former Governor of Utah Mike Leavitt. "We are better today because of his outstanding leadership. At Intermountain, we remain steadfast in our dedication to our patients and the communities we serve. Our leaders and caregivers will continue to carry our important work forward and ensure that the health and well-being of our patients remain at the center of our work."   

Based in Utah, with locations in seven states and additional operations across the western U.S., Intermountain Healthcare is a nonprofit system of 33 hospitals, 385 clinics, medical groups with approximately 3,900 employed physicians and advanced care providers, a health plans division called SelectHealth with more than 1 million members, and other health services.
