At the Payer and Life Sciences Division (Veradigm) of Allscripts, JP led expansion strategies to broaden the company’s scope and scale. He drove the division’s growth from $20 million in 2013 to $180 million in 2018, creating new client relationships with large U.S. health plans and pharmaceutical companies. At Innovaccer, he will leverage his rich experience to address the critical data challenges faced by payer organizations.

“Value-based care is the future of U.S. healthcare,” explained JP. “Payers must seize the opportunity to play a critical role in enabling high-quality, affordable healthcare by fostering collaboration among stakeholders across the care continuum. By going beyond traditional payer-centered levers with an integrated approach that empowers both providers and members and addresses data challenges, payers can meet critical needs across the healthcare value chain. I am excited to be a part of Innovaccer’s payer business, which focuses on driving more collaboration and connectivity among payers, providers, and members to create aligned incentives and greater performance.”
