Proximie Bolsters Senior Executive Team With Key Appointments

Proximie has appointed two senior healthcare executives to its leadership team in the United States and United Kingdom, adding considerable talent and expertise in artificial intelligence (AI) and data science.

The appointments follow notable partnerships with medical developers—HistoSonics and Imperative Care—as well as the launch of Proximie’s Intelligence and Surgical Suites, its dual offering to healthcare systems.

Prem Batchu-Green has been appointed as general manager, Americas, and will oversee Proximie’s business operations, performance, and strategy in North America. Joining from AI-powered care coordination platform, Viz.ai, she brings nearly two decades’ experience leading clinical, strategy, and operations teams, developing healthcare systems through innovative care pathways and AI-powered digital health solutions.

Batchu-Green’s experience and knowledge align with Proximie’s goals and strategy as the company continues its growth as an AI-native organization. Within her new role, Batchu-Green will drive the expansion of the company’s market penetration, enhancing its value to U.S. healthcare system and medical developer customers.

Artem Tabalin has been named vice president of Engineering to lead Proximie’s development of computer vision and data science capabilities. Previously at Meta, Tabalin worked for data security company Metomic and has more than 19 years of experience in product development across various industries with a focus on AI- and data-driven innovations. He adds substantial knowledge and expertise to Proximie’s engineering team as the company continues building and developing technologies redefining the future of healthcare delivery.

In addition to these executive-level appointments, Proximie has doubled its data science team and is recruiting further talent in both computer science and customer success in the United States and United Kingdom.

“We are delighted to welcome Prem and Artem to the team. Both bring extensive experience in driving strategic innovation, commercial success, and product development within the context of AI in healthcare—strengths that will further our mission to expand the impact of digital healthcare and medical technology, broaden global access to surgery, and improve patient outcomes,” Proximie Founder/CEO Dr. Nadine Hachach-Haram commented. “Their arrival reflects our confidence in the momentum of healthtech innovation and the opportunities it brings. Prem and Artem will each be integral to the expert senior team we are building as Proximie enters an exciting new phase of growth.”

To date, Proximie is deployed across five continents and is working with hundreds of healthcare systems and major medical device developers to create a global impact by improving access to high-quality surgical care in both developed and developing economies.
