Joining HealthStream 17 years ago as a Certified Public Accountant from Ernst & Young, Mr. Roberts brings substantial financial expertise and experience to the role of CFO. His broad experience in public financial reporting and deep knowledge of financial operations, both in general and Company-specific terms, make him particularly qualified to serve as CFO.
“Scott is an exceptionally talented and competent executive—and I’m confident that he will serve HealthStream and our stakeholders well,” said Robert A. Frist, Jr., Chief Executive Officer, HealthStream. “Having worked with him for many years, I can also attest to the fact that he embodies HealthStream’s value of ‘behaving with integrity’ in everything he does as his leadership continues to provide a great example for others to follow.”
Following his service in multiple positions and accompanying promotions in HealthStream’s Finance and Accounting Department after joining the Company in 2002, Mr. Roberts was promoted to Vice President, Accounting and Finance in 2015. His leadership at HealthStream made him an ideal candidate to assume the role of Interim Chief Financial Officer, a position he has held over the last eight months.
