President and CEO
Blue Shield of California Promise Health Plan |

For over 20 years Greg has held chief executive, COO, and medical leadership roles in managed Medi-Cal health plans throughout California - including CalOptima, Centene, Health Net, and now Blue Shield Promise, placing him at the forefront of the growth trajectory of Medi-Cal, which now insures over one-third of all Californians. |

myLab Box
|
|
With STDs on a dramatic incline (chlamydia, for example, hit the highest numbers ever recorded by the CDC), myLab Box offers the first at-home, easy and affordable - and private - STD testing service with certified results ready in days, without any lab visits or co-pays. And, for consumers who test positive, free same-day treatment phone consults are available. And now, at-home fertility tests, for both men and women, are also available. |

Eric Neuner, CEO
|
Health Coach Institute
|
|
It's long been established that unhealthy behavior (poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking, etc.) results in the majority of the chronic diseases driving up America's healthcare costs. In just two-years at the helm of HCI, Eric has transformed the lives of now over 30,000 certified health coaches who promote habit change - first in themselves, then in their clients. The result: healthier lifestyles all around. |

Arup Roy-Burman, MD, Co-Founder & CEO

Elemeno Health
|
|
Frontline healthcare staff frequently are expected to perform perfectly procedures in which they may be a little "rusty."" Too frequently, the misadventures result in downgraded Star ratings, or tragedy. Elemeno Health offers a customized, app-based micro-learning solution that provides frontline staff with app-based, Just-in-Time re/learning tools and resources to improve outcomes with the delivery of best practices.

The Tay Group's careKA$H |
|
Overall, out-of-pocket costs rose 12% in 2018, with patients’ co-pays and deductibles totaling $4,659 for an inpatient visit. In response to this dramatic increase, Mike's developed careKA$H, a program that offers an innovative way for employers to help employees cover their deductible and co-pay expenses, improving employee satisfaction, and saving costs for both parties. |
