Denver, CO (PRWEB) October 25, 2010
MedVoy announced today that they have added Lew Emanuelson to its advisory board to support and develop strategies for the employer benefit marketplace. MedVoy will now have an additional 32 years of specialized insurance experience in underwriting, sales and consulting for group health insurance plans and insurance brokerages in order to provide invaluable insight into the increasingly complex insurance vertical. It will enable MedVoy’s partners to draw from a new pipeline of patients to increase revenue streams, while also fulfilling MedVoy’s mission of connecting patients to domestic and international healthcare providers that administer the highest quality of care and accessibility at an affordable cost.
“MedVoy offers an excellent opportunity to help employers find lower cost solutions to the skyrocketing cost of healthcare,” said Lew Emanuelson, insurance advisor to MedVoy. “The unfortunate reality is that, even with healthcare reform, medical costs will continue to increase; MedVoy gives additional options for employers and employees to staunch the rising tide of healthcare costs.”
“Understanding the perspective of both employers and employees allows MedVoy to deepen our existing involvement with employer benefit groups,” said Raj Joseph, founder and chief executive officer of MedVoy. “This will save money for employers and increase revenue for providers - while continuing to deliver high-quality affordable solutions for our patients.
