"Alexis is widely respected across the healthcare industry, especially among the health insurance, healthcare provider and government program communities," said Scott Rotermund, WellTok's president and co-founder.  "Her expertise and established trust with these key healthcare population managers will significantly enhance our customer relationships and business development efforts."

"WellTok has rapidly proven that social networking technology represents a tremendous new tool for healthcare population managers to address the engagement challenge, and I look forward to helping bring forth that solution in the market," added Walker.

Walker's experience includes medical devices, payer information systems, care and disease management services, hospitals and physician practices.

Walker was most recently executive vice president of sales and marketing at wound-care device maker Oxyband Technologies, Inc.   Before that she was senior vice president of sales at ikaSystems, and led business development efforts at Inspiris, Care Level Management, Renaissance Health Care, HealthMark and Hospital Corporation of America.
