Inspira CEO to retire, system president named successor

Even as Inspira Health has grown, Amy Mansue has relished the opportunity of leading a system serving rural communities in New Jersey.

Mansue, the president and CEO of Inspira, talked about the responsibility that comes with leading a rural health system in an interview with Chief Healthcare Executive® in July 2025.

“The reality is that this delivery of care is very different, because you are literally caring for your friends, your family, and your neighbors,” Mansue said. “This is not … OK, maybe I see somebody occasionally that I know. I mean, it's very personal.”

After six years of leading Inspira, Mansue says she’s ready to step away. She announced this week that she’s planning to retire at the end of the year.

Warren Moore, president of Inspira, has been named the next CEO of Inspira. He’ll take over in January.

“Leading Inspira has been one of the great privileges of my career,” Mansue said in a news release accompanying the announcement. “I’m proud of what our team has accomplished and grateful for the trust of our communities.”

Getting direct feedback

Inspira operates four hospitals, including a medical center in Vineland and its newest hospital in Harrison Township, Gloucester County. The system is getting set to open a new tower at Inspira Medical Center Mullica Hill.

The system operates two small hospitals in Salem County, two cancer centers and a host of other health centers and clinics throughout South Jersey.

A lifelong resident of New Jersey, Mansue said in serving rural communities in the Garden State, “It's really about just proving yourself every day.”

In the 2025 interview, Mansue talked about the connection she has with members of her community.

“I mean, I can't go to church on Sunday without somebody stopping me and telling me what's going on,” she said in 2025. “And that's okay.”

“It's a wonderful gift, because you always get that direct feedback, and you never have to wonder about whether it's being filtered at all, but it helps us be better,” Mansue said.

She reflected with pride on the teaching program at the Vineland hospital, which has grown in recent years.

“I think that element of having teaching there, bringing people in, always having that questioning attitude, just makes us better,” Mansue said.

Before joining Inspira, Mansue served as executive vice president and chief experience officer at RWJBarnabas Health. She has also chaired the boards of the New Jersey Hospital Association Board and the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce.

Focusing on collaboration

Moore became president of Inspira earlier this year. He previously served as the system’s chief operating officer and possesses more than three decades of experience in the healthcare industry.

In a statement announcing the leadership transition, Moore also emphasized the connection to community.

“The needs of South Jersey will always shape every decision we make at Inspira,” Moore said. “Our commitment is to ensure people can receive the services they need, close to home, and to earn their trust every day.”

In a conversation with Chief Healthcare Executive earlier this year, Moore touted the virtue of partnering to expand services.

The health system has partnered with Cooper Norcross Health, formerly known as Cooper University Health Care in New Jersey, to expand services for patients. Cooper has provided cardiac services for a decade. Cooper has also embedded physicians at Inspira’s two larger hospitals, provides services in the system’s intensive care units, and also partners in neuroscience care.

“Folks in this area always had to travel either Philadelphia or New York to get that care. And now they're getting great care here,” Moore said.

“You don't always have to compete,” he explained. “We compete with Cooper on a lot of fronts, but in the right areas.”

Mansue also gave Moore a strong endorsement.

“After working alongside Warren for many years, I know his ability to bring people together, navigate complex challenges and understand what our patients and neighbors count on us to deliver,” she said in a statement. “I have every confidence in his leadership of Inspira’s next chapter.”
