The president of Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital will step down from the position on Oct. 31, according to Lehigh Valley Health Network, a part of Jefferson Health.
Anne Baum was named the first president of Reilly Children’s Hospital in January 2022. The network did not respond when asked why she was leaving. LVHN has yet to select a replacement.
“We thank Anne for her service and wish her the best,” said a network spokesperson in an emailed statement.
While president of Reilly Children’s Hospital, Baum oversaw its strategic planning and operations. She was named to the Lehigh Valley Business Power 100 list for 2025.
Before joining LVHN, Baum was Lehigh Valley market president and vice president, producer and labor relations for Capital Blue Cross. She was also vice president of managed care at St. Luke’s University Health Network.
