I am a multi-disciplined healthcare leader, dedicated to improving the quality and delivery of care in the United States.Leveraging data, analytics and research, while building relationships and strategic partnerships, I develop actionable insights essential for implementing solutions to improve systems, programs, products and services.I believe it is critical that experts work together to empower healthcare professionals, and jointly fulfill the lofty objective of keeping us all in good health. We need to be focused on doing the right thing by one another, and committed to transforming the system to meet our collective needs.With substantial experience collaborating across Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans, I intensely value the insights that others can bring to the table. I fundamentally appreciate that when we collaborate together, we can share our innovative ideas, discover new solutions, arrive at consensus, and ultimately improve the system in which we have dedicated our careers.My approach to business development is balanced – create intelligence and insights mined from data (observations, analytics) and build strategic partnerships, internal and external, to solve problems. Because of my expertise in a multitude of functional areas within the industry, combined with the knowledge of best practices from my colleagues across the country, I am able to create innovative strategies and enable practical solutions for payors, employers/national accounts, providers and members.Healthcare Leader, Strategic Partner with expertise in:National Accounts | Provider Networks | Provider Contracting | Business Development | Relationship & Consensus Building | Sales & Marketing | Operations | Cross-Functional Team Leadership | GovernanceData Solutions Advocate with expertise in:Analytics & Reporting | Data Quality | Business Insights | Consumer Transparency | Business Requirements | Market Research | Financial Modeling
