Dr. Chaney, who has been an integral part of Maury Regional since 2002 and took on the role of CEO in 2022, shared valuable insights regarding the changing healthcare environment in southern Middle Tennessee.
Maury Regional Health caters to a diverse population exceeding 260,000 individuals across an expansive eight-county area.

During his presentation, Dr. Chaney highlighted the organization’s unwavering dedication to providing clinical excellence and compassionate care to every patient, every day. He articulated their vision of becoming the preferred choice for health and wellness services in the region.
