InTouch Health, a telehealth network and managed service provider, has appointed Joseph M. DeVivo as its new CEO.
DeVivo was most recently president, CEO, and director of AngioDynamics, a $360 million (in annual revenue) publicly traded global leader in peripheral vascular, vascular access and interventional oncology. He brings more than 25 years of healthcare industry and leadership experience ranging from entrepreneurial to multi-billion dollar organizations, including global president of Smith & Nephew Orthopedics, a $2 billion (in annual revenue) global operation.
“I am honored to join InTouch Health at this very exciting time. I’m thrilled to be part of such an innovative, growing business that delivers telehealth technologies and services to health systems around the world,” said DeVivo. “InTouch Health is at a pivotal stage and is ready to accelerate growth and scale. I look forward to leading the company’s expansion of its enterprise-wide, cloud-based telemedicine platform, while adding specialist physician led services and new clinical applications to its offering.”
Yulun Wang, Ph.D., who has been chairman and CEO since founding the company in 2002, will remain as board chairman. He will stay actively involved in the company’s strategic direction and operations and will assume the newly established role of chief innovation officer.
“I have known Joe DeVivo for more than 20 years both professionally and personally, and I’m delighted to have him lead InTouch Health as our new CEO. He brings the right kind of leadership and experience to help our customers and company achieve increasing success as telehealth expands on a global scale,” Wang said.
