Duly Health and Care Appoints Chris Catalano as Chief Financial Officer

DOWN­ERS GROVE, IL — Duly Health and Care today announced that Chris Cata­lano has been named Chief Finan­cial Offi­cer. Cata­lano will join Duly’s exec­u­tive lead­er­ship team and report direct­ly to CEO Dan Greenleaf. 

Cata­lano brings a strong track record of finan­cial lead­er­ship, oper­a­tional trans­for­ma­tion, and val­ue cre­ation across mul­ti-site, con­sumer-focused, and mis­sion-dri­ven orga­ni­za­tions, includ­ing com­plex, high­ly reg­u­lat­ed envi­ron­ments. His expe­ri­ence will sup­port Duly’s con­tin­ued focus on expand­ing access to care, improv­ing afford­abil­i­ty, and deliv­er­ing high-qual­i­ty out­comes for patients and communities.

“Chris is a proven leader with deep expe­ri­ence guid­ing orga­ni­za­tions through growth and change while stay­ing ground­ed in pur­pose,” said Dan Green­leaf, CEO of Duly Health and Care. ​“His back­ground and approach align well with who we are at Duly. He will play an impor­tant role as we con­tin­ue to build a physi­cian-led health sys­tem that makes care eas­i­er to access, more afford­able, and more con­nect­ed for the peo­ple we serve.”

Most recent­ly, Cata­lano served as Chief Finan­cial Offi­cer of Full­Bloom, a nation­al provider of edu­ca­tion and behav­ioral health ser­vices. Over near­ly a decade with the orga­ni­za­tion, he played a key role in advanc­ing finan­cial strat­e­gy and oper­a­tional trans­for­ma­tion, help­ing posi­tion the orga­ni­za­tion for sus­tained growth through mul­ti­ple stages of change.

Pri­or to Full­Bloom, Cata­lano was an oper­at­ing part­ner at Ster­ling Part­ners before step­ping into the role of Chair­man and CEO of School of Rock. Under his lead­er­ship, the orga­ni­za­tion scaled rapid­ly and became the largest after-school music edu­ca­tion provider in the Unit­ed States.

Ear­li­er in his career, Cata­lano held senior lead­er­ship roles at McDonald’s Cor­po­ra­tion, includ­ing serv­ing as Chief Invest­ment Offi­cer of McDonald’s Ven­tures, where he over­saw strate­gic invest­ments and con­tributed to Chipotle’s IPO and oth­er port­fo­lio trans­ac­tions. He also spent sev­er­al years at GE and GE Cap­i­tal, ris­ing to Senior Vice Pres­i­dent of Cor­po­rate Devel­op­ment and part­ner­ing with GE Equi­ty to co-lead invest­ments dur­ing one of the firm’s most active invest­ment periods.

“I’m hon­ored to join Duly Health and Care and excit­ed about the oppor­tu­ni­ty ahead,” said Cata­lano. ​“As a res­i­dent of the Chica­go sub­urbs, it means a great deal to work with an orga­ni­za­tion that has a direct impact on the com­mu­ni­ty my fam­i­ly and I call home. Duly’s com­mit­ment to patient-cen­tered care, physi­cian lead­er­ship, and com­mu­ni­ty impact is clear, and I look for­ward to sup­port­ing the team as we con­tin­ue to serve our patients and neighborhoods.”

Cata­lano holds a Bach­e­lor of Sci­ence from Vil­lano­va Uni­ver­si­ty and an MBA in Finance from Rid­er University.
