Practice Management Alternatives adds Senior Management
Bellevue, WA – August 12, 2009 - Practice Management Alternatives, is pleased to announce that
two proven business professionals will join its senior management:
· Jan Claesson, internationally successful senior executive, organizational and business
development expert, and;
· Christopher Pouliot, an accomplished operations, technology and relationship management
Executive, join PMA immediately as managing consultants and advisors on current and new
PMA projects.
Prior to joining PMA, Claesson was CEO for Adaptis, a technology and BPO company serving
healthcare payers. His previous experiences cover CEO and general management responsibilities
in three countries in software, pharmaceutical, medical device, telecom and other technology based
companies. Companies include F1000, mid-size as well as start-up organizations. Claesson has built
and lead organizations in excess of $800m in annual revenues.
Pouliot’s background spans several industries, the past ten years with Adaptis, Inc. focused on
client solutions in health care finance, operations and logistics between providers, payers, and
intermediaries. His previous experience includes Director level positions with oversight of finance
and operations in hospitality, banking, and retail firms.
“Both Jan and Chris are welcome additions to our team,” says PMA’s VP of Audit and Regulatory
Systems, Dr. Donald Jones. “They bring a wealth of recent healthcare experience, especially in
the areas of finance, IT, health plans, and in that challenging space that defines how projects
should run when a big change is in the offing.”
Derek Jansen of PMA adds, “We think the depth and breadth of knowledge they bring to
our client support is incredibly important as the government constantly updates the laws and
regulations surrounding federal health care programs at the same time it encourages entities to
adopt new ways of conducting business. Only professionals who both understand the regulations
and know how to implement programs can help healthcare entities ensure both success
and compliance.”
