About

I believe the human condition is vulnerable to health, learning, and economic conditions. My interests are in connecting these 3 components of opportunity so that people can flourish. My career is in healthcare; specifically, applying new healthcare data techniques that heal health plans broken by today's crowded, complicated, and conflicted systems so that employers can restore value and their people can affordably access the care they need. Hope is not a strategy to achieve this. Thriving comes from solving problems, respecting resources, and performance execution. That means health plans need an independent performance accountability solution so that data reveals answers, performance is traceable, and non-performance is held accountable. The human condition is at stake.

Experience

  • Chairman and CEO at Averify
    Oct 2014 - Present · 11 yrs 10 mos

    Averify is healthcares performance accountability solution. By indexing variability in price and quality - and cross referencing results with stratified member risk, employers get a true measurement of plan performance and how to repair non-performance. Our systems intelligence independently and collectively makes value measurable, pre-validates savings solutions, and holds vendors accountable to performance guarantees. Our unique advantage is our VARIABILITY COST INDEX that connects data points in a way that identifies performance achieved and gaps where savings opportunities were missed. We examine essentially all approaches to savings at the same time by seeing the same data through multiple lenses. By connecting condition, procedure, zip code, provider, place of service, and more to price and quality at a granular level, we are able to provide a pathway to rolling back costs for employers and their people. Your broker is the product expert. We give them, and your plan fiduciaries, the answers they need to determine which type of solutions will optimize performance for your specific company. We believe that fair pricing and appropriateness of care are equally vital to the healthcare experience members deserve and employer's fund. If you are a self-funded employer, we'd like to show you how we can restore your control over your healthcare plan.

  • Senior Advisor and Practice Leader for Healthcare Network Design at Gallagher

    As large self-funded employers realize the inconsistencies of network discounts and face the emergence of value based care, the challenge of savings predictability and efficient guidance of delivery adds to the burden employers face. The proliferation of alternatives to traditional networks makes it even more challenging to determine real value. My practice at Gallagher addresses this by providing services that identify existing inefficiencies and validate design structures that reduce costs.
