(PR Web Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Franklin, Tennessee (PRWEB) February 13, 2013
Strategic Health Services (SHS) has announced the appointment of Christopher J. Caramanico as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Caramanico served in leading sales, marketing, and operational roles with SCI Solutions, Allscripts and McKesson before joining SHS. He was appointed to SHS’s Board of Directors in 2011.
SHS also announced that Loren Buysman has been appointed to its Board of Directors. Mr. Buysman has served in high-level technology and management roles at McKesson for 25 years. His last position there was as a group President, for the McKesson Provider Technology Division.
Tasso Coin, Chairman of the Board of SHS, said, “Chris’s board guidance has helped the company prepare for the burgeoning population health management market. We are very pleased that he will now have an even more direct role with SHS, and we’re very glad to welcome Loren to the Board.”
Chris Caramanico has a proven track record for building high-performance sales and operational teams over the last 20+ years. In his eight years at McKesson, Mr. Caramanico held increasingly senior roles culminating as the general manager leading McKesson’s managed services business. The managed services business included over 700 employees and over $225 million in revenue. For the past several years he has played significant leadership roles at Eclipsys, now Allscripts, and most recently at SCI Solutions.
Mr. Caramanico said, “Strategic Health has a service-technology combination that hospitals and other healthcare organizations need as reimbursement shifts risk from payors to patients and providers in an accountable care model. Keeping people well, preventing disease, overcoming chronic illnesses – these are becoming more important for hospitals and healthcare providers as the reimbursement risk shifts. SHS is uniquely positioned to support them and ultimately bend the cost curve of healthcare in the US today.”
