Three CMH employees reelected to MHCA leadership roles
Three Citizens Memorial Health Care Foundation employees were reelected to leadership roles on the Missouri Health Care Association Board of Directors at the summer 2025 MHCA convention.
Chris McBratney, administrator at Lake Stockton Healthcare Facility in Stockton, was reelected to his second term as MHCA president. As president, he oversees the MHCA executive team and leads the board of directors. A recipient of the 2022 David Duncan Administrator of the Year Award, McBratney has served on the MHCA Board of Directors since 2000. He has worked for CMH for 32 years.
“I am honored to serve another term as president,” McBratney said. “I look forward to working with our 400 member facilities, the board of directors and staff to accomplish MHCA’s vision of a profession where excellent and compassionate care is delivered to all of Missouri’s residents by an outstanding workforce. I am also grateful to work for an industry-leading organization like CMH that supports me and the association.”
Tim Francka, administrative director of long-term care at CMH, was reelected as the Council of States Representative for Missouri on the American Health Care Association Board of Directors. Francka has held this position since 2017 after serving as MHCA president and past president from 2012 to 2016. He received the David Duncan Administrator of the Year Award in 2010 and has twice been the MHCA Member of the Year. He has been a member of the MHCA Board of Directors since 1994 and has been with CMH for 36 years.
“It’s an honor to work for an organization like CMH that empowers its employees to advocate for health care on the state and national level,” Francka said. “While being part of the MHCA board for 30 years, we have experienced a lot of change in health care. We hope to have a positive impact on those changes as we move into the future.”
Roy Pace, administrator of Colonial Springs Healthcare Center in Buffalo, was reelected to the MHCA Board as a member at large. He was selected to be the MHCA Convention Chair for 2026, marking his third consecutive year in the role. Pace has been a member of the MHCA Board of Directors since 2014 and won the David Duncan Administrator of the Year Award in 2012 and 2017. He has been in health care for 29 years and with CMH for two years.
