David Strand to Join UnisLink Leadership Team as Executive Chairman

PHOENIX, Jan. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- UnisLink, a leading provider of end-to-end revenue cycle and population health management services to independent physician practices, ACOs, and value-based care groups, has named David Strand the Executive Chairman of UnisLink.

Mr. Strand has spent more than 30 years providing executive leadership to some of the nation's leading health care institutions, including serving as COO of the Cleveland Clinic, COO of Allina Health System and CEO of Medica. Mr. Strand has also served as CEO of four early-stage companies.

"Revenue cycle and population health management is an increasingly complex and critical issue for all providers, and the demand for sophisticated outsourced revenue cycle and analytics solutions is growing," Mr. Strand said. "I have experienced a wide range of solutions in a variety of settings.  I have been truly impressed with UnisLink's proprietary and differentiated workflow technology, financial and population health analytics software, and skilled teams in the US and India that all bring enhanced clinical and financial outcomes to physician practices.  UnisLink is also far ahead of the curve in helping practices navigate the continued evolution to value-based care. There are thousands of small and large provider groups that could benefit from UnisLink's technology and services – and we plan to deliver it to them."

Amit Lal and Kannan Ramachandran, founders and co-CEOs of UnisLink, remarked, "We are thrilled to welcome David, who has successfully led both small and large provider groups. His experience and guidance will increase our leading position serving small-to-medium physician groups and accelerate our already growing footprint with large outpatient and hospital-affiliated physician groups."

"We are very excited to have David Strand provide leadership and guidance to the rest of the UnisLink executive team as the company enters a new phase of accelerated growth," said Max Osofsky, a General Partner at Riverside Partners.
