DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Dec. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Healthcare transformation expert Timothy Wilde has joined UpHealth, Inc. (NYSE: UPH) as Chief Technology Officer, effectively immediately. Wilde reports to UpHealth CEO Sam Meckey and will be part of the company’s executive leadership team.

Wilde, who has 30 years of experience across the healthcare, genomics, life sciences and insurance sectors, most recently served as Chief Technology Officer for EXL Health. There, he led business transformation for the company’s digital, clinical, payments and data and analytics clients and was responsible for an order of magnitude increase in digital health revenue, while also improving net income technology costs.

He has led highly successful transformations, and I am confident that he will help accelerate UpHealth’s next phase of growth.

“Having worked with Tim in the past, I also know that he is highly respected by his teams and colleagues and will be an excellent cultural fit with our company.”

Wilde also served as Chief Technology Officer of Zelis Health Care, a healthcare-focused payments platform that was acquired by Bain Capital, and as the Chief Information Officer of Luxottica Group, the world’s largest vertically integrated eyewear company, which was acquired by Essilor. Earlier in his career, Wilde was Vice President at Coventry Health, a diversified national managed care company that was acquired by Aetna CVS.

“I am very pleased to be joining UpHealth at this point in the company’s evolution,” said Wilde. “We stand on the forefront of a new age for how care is delivered.
