Personal News from Robert Chafin, Vice President, Industry Research and Engagement

This is a note of thanks to the many of you whom I have gotten the pleasure to know during my long (seems like only yesterday though when I started) tenure with Bluegrass Business Media.

I have some personal news to share with you – Friday, November 12th, will be my last day with BBM.

I’ve accepted a position with RWJBarnabas Health and will officially begin there this month.  

In addition to the many friendships, I have learned so much about the healthcare supply chain these last eight years and it’s primarily due to listening to, and learning from, you. Whether through friendly conversations, responses to surveys, or your candid answers to questions I asked. You’ve both inspired me and, whether you knew it at the time, helped me prepare me for this next chapter of my life. Thank you!  


Again, I am so thankful for my experience here at BBM and with the IDN Summit. Below is my new contact information that can be used starting November 15th. I do hope to stay in touch. Who knows, maybe I’ll see you at a future IDN Summit.
