STEVE ALEMAN
Chief Financial Officer
Prime Healthcare
Steve Aleman’s healthcare career started at WellPoint Health Networks/Anthem where he brought financial discipline and expertise to the merger and acquisition efforts and led nationwide SEC compliance initiatives for the Fortune 40 company. After 10 years at WellPoint/Anthem, he went from the payor side of healthcare to the provider side with Prospect Medical Holdings. Aleman was rapidly promoted to chief financial officer of the company, where he led from a corporate development and financial leadership perspective to expand the company from a mid-size Southern California healthcare company to a multi-billion-dollar integrated healthcare system with a national footprint.
In early 2020, Aleman joined Prime Healthcare, where his efforts have translated to the execution of organic and strategic growth opportunities and a focus on optimizing the company’s capital structure to drive future company growth for years to come. As chief financial officer of Prime Healthcare, Aleman provides financial stewardship to one of the nation’s leading health systems with 45 hospitals in 14 states serving over 600 communities. The organization has nearly 50,000 physicians and staff and provides 2.6 million patient visits annually. Aleman, a CPA, has leveraged his three decades of healthcare experience to help Prime successfully navigate the ever-changing US healthcare market.
Aleman’s solutions-oriented approach proved invaluable as Prime navigated through the historic acquisition of St. Francis Medical Center in Southeast Los Angeles during a challenging time in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Aleman played a key leadership role in returning St. Francis to a thriving community asset it once was.
