Bracken to become Chairman of HCAs Board of Directors Effective Dec. 15
Board Appoints R. Milton Johnson as Director
Nashville, Tenn., November 2, 2009 - HCA has announced that Richard M. Bracken will become chairman
of HCAs board of directors, effective December 15, 2009.
Bracken will replace Jack O. Bovender, Jr., 64, who will retire from the company, effective that
same date. In addition, R. Milton Johnson, HCAs chief financial officer and executive vice
president, was elected to the board of directors, also effective December 15, 2009.
Richard has been an invaluable asset to HCA, and his years in both hospital management and
executive leadership with the company provide him with a keen understanding of strategic operations
and an appreciation for its culture, said Bovender. I could not envision a better successor or a
more qualified guardian of our companys legacy.
Bracken, 57, has served as president and chief executive officer of HCA since January 1, 2009, and
has served as a director of the company since 2002. He was president and chief operating officer
from January 2002 to January 2009. A veteran of more than 30 years in the hospital industry,
Bracken has been a member of HCAs executive leadership for most of his career, and has held
positions at the facility, division, and group levels within the organization.
Johnson, 52, has served 27 years with the company, holding positions as head of HCAs Tax
Department and as Controller, before being named CFO and executive vice president in July of 2004.
Milton is an outstanding addition to our board, said Bracken. His extensive understanding of the
companys financial operations and history of leadership within HCA make him particularly qualified
to serve as a director.
HCA and its affiliates operate 163 hospitals and 105 ambulatory surgery centers in 20 states and
England.
