Leadership

Ted is the President & Chief Executive Officer of Healthcare Services Group and serves on the Company’s Board of Directors. Ted joined HCSG in 2004 as a Manager-in-Training and, during his time with the Company, progressed through the ranks, serving in a variety of field-based and corporate roles, including Account Manager, District Manager, Director of Operations, Vice President of Finance, and Chief Operating Officer. Upon being named Chief Executive Officer in 2015, Ted inspired a company-wide movement spearheading the creation of its Purpose, Vision & Values. Embarking on a series of business optimization and process improvement initiatives, Ted organized the Company around its Vision – To Be The Choice For Our Customers. He also initiated an internal focus on community-based initiatives, including establishing the Company’s Going Beyond Employee Assistance Fund, instituting recruiting and hiring practices geared toward individuals who traditionally faced employment barriers (including military and veterans), and supporting numerous equal access to education programs. Prior to joining HCSG, Ted was a Certified Public Accountant and Senior Manager with Ernst & Young’s Transaction and Strategy Group in New York City, where he advised private equity and corporate clients in evaluating and navigating mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures. Ted holds a BS in Accounting from The Pennsylvania State University. He is a member of the Board of Trustees and Advancement Committee at The Holy Child School at Rosemont. Ted resides in Bryn Mawr, PA, with his wife and three children and is a big fan of family adventures, Philly sports, and school choice! One of the Wahl family recent highlights was a safari in Africa.  

Before joining HCSG, Jason spent most of his professional career in the private practice of law at the firm of Drinker Biddle and Reath in Princeton, NJ. Jason joined HCSG in 2012 and has worked exhaustively to build and ensure the constant evolution of HCSG’s legal and compliance arenas and endeavors to habitually provide sound counsel and constructive solutions to HCSG’s Board of Directors, Senior Leadership Team, and all levels of operational and revenue management personnel. He also serves as Secretary for HCSG’s Board of Directors. Jason holds a BA in Psychology from The University of Dayton and a JD from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Jason has two children, Dylan and Abigail, who are the preeminent sources of joy and inspiration in his life. He believes in teaching them how to think, not what to think, and they, along with everyone at HCSG that he has the privilege of working with, help Jason live out his self-proclaimed personal purpose of  “providing perspective.”  Jason, it seems, is also a fan of unnecessary alliteration.  

Andy began his career spending seven years at PNC Bank. While at PNC, he held multiple roles within the risk management function and ultimately progressed to Vice President and Risk Manager, responsible for the management of the organization’s enterprise-level property and casualty programs and its claim management and loss control functions. He joined Healthcare Services Group in 2010, and with a focus on maximizing organizational efficiencies through continued process improvement, he has led initiatives to reorganize and enhance the human resources, risk management, and operations functions.

Andy is a graduate of Temple University, receiving his BBA in Risk Management and Insurance, as well as Finance. He lives in Yardley, PA, with his wife and four energetic children.

John is a seasoned finance professional. He began his career spending four years at Coopers and Lybrand before heading to Georgetown University to get his MBA to round out his professional experience and escape public accounting. Having completed B-School and a finance internship at SmithKline Beecham, John somehow found his way back to PricewaterhouseCoopers, which was the opposite of his intent when he left public accounting for the first time! At PwC, John served in the growing Transaction Services practice and spent ten years in similar roles at PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst and Young, supporting both Corporate and Private Equity clients in their growth strategies. In 2009, John joined HCSG to support the Company’s growth. He brought his technical accounting and financial expertise in quickly identifying financial drivers, opportunities, and risks through due diligence and consulting opportunities, including working on over 50 deals. He started as Director of Regulatory Reporting, progressing to be named Chief Financial Officer in 2012. He has developed an outstanding team supporting the continued growth of the Company through improved management reporting and analytics.  In addition to an MBA from Georgetown University, John holds a BS in Accounting from Boston College. When not at work, John enjoys long walks on the golf course or otherwise, as well as spending time with his family, who does not own a dog! He has also enjoyed growing his hair since the introduction of pandemic-related stay-at-home orders!
