The announcement follows the recent appointment of Marina Aslanyan as chief executive officer and marks another step in Cadara's evolution and commitment to the future of post-acute revenue management. The company is expanding its technology platform, investing in artificial intelligence and next-generation capabilities, and advancing a more connected approach to managing revenue across the post-acute continuum.

"We've assembled a leadership team with deep expertise in healthcare technology, post-acute care and scaling high-performing organizations," said Marina Aslanyan, chief executive officer of Cadara. "Together, we have the experience and shared vision to accelerate Cadara's growth while staying focused on what matters most — delivering meaningful innovation and measurable value for our customers.

Cadara is bringing together the people, processes, technology and intelligence that influence revenue — from the earliest stages of the resident journey through payment, recovery and optimization.

"We're building Cadara for where post-acute care is headed, not where it has been," Aslanyan added. "Our opportunity is not simply to improve traditional RCM, but to rethink how revenue is managed across the entire lifecycle. The future of revenue management should be more proactive, more intelligent and more connected — giving post-acute organizations the confidence to anticipate challenges and act before they become financial problems."
