The Curation Health leadership team
YOUR TEAM IN NAVIGATING FROM FEE-FOR-SERVICE TO VALUE-BASED CARE
Curation Health was founded by a team of healthcare veterans who realized providers and health plans desperately needed a solution to help them improve performance in risk-based contracts. They are backed by WindRose Health Investors. Curation Health was founded with this mission in mind:
To empower healthcare provider organizations and health plans to successfully navigate and scale from fee-for-service to value-based care, while supporting clinicians and improving overall patient care.
We take pride in working with the flexibility and speed of a startup grounded in decades of healthcare experience from leading institutions.
Kevin Coloton
Founder & Chief Executive Officer
Kevin launched Curation Health after observing the challenges associated with healthcare provider organizations migrating from traditional reimbursement models to clinical quality programs — as well as the issues health plans were encountering as they looked to partner with providers in the shift to value-based care reimbursement structures.
Prior to Curation Health, Kevin was a founding Partner and President of Clinovations, a clinically oriented healthcare management consulting firm dedicated to healthcare technology optimization. Clinovations was acquired by the Advisory Board Company in 2014.
