Brad Bennett has spent nearly three decades building strong teams and companies that have focused on serving our nation’s most medically complex patients in the most cost effective & highest quality settings possible. As a result of these experiences, he has developed a strong belief that the only way to build a national healthcare services platform, with the ability to consistently deliver measurable improvements in clinical quality/patient experiences (while also reducing total cost of care), is to build an organization truly committed to serving our local market teams and direct care workforce.Brad joined MGA Homecare in Feb '20 after the Company was acquired by Flexpoint Ford. Since that date he has served as Chief Executive Officer. Prior to joining MGA, Brad co-founded, in Jan '17, Upward Health (previously BehaveCare, Inc.) in partnership with BlueCross BlueShield Venture Partners.
