Director, Strategic Accounts (Payers)

Abacus Insights is a mission-driven technology company focused on transforming the healthcare data industry, ultimately creating a more personalized patient experience, improving health outcomes, and lowering the overall cost of healthcare. Abacus Insights provides a flexible, efficient, and secure platform that organizes and exchanges healthcare data from various sources and formats, allowing our customers to uncover differentiated insights. In addition, our employees know that they play an active role in keeping our customers' data safe and are responsible for ensuring that our comprehensive policies and practices are met. 

With our deep expertise in cloud-enabled technologies and knowledge of the healthcare industry, we have built an innovative data integration and management platform that allows healthcare payers access to data that has been historically siloed and inaccessible. Through our platform, these healthcare organizations can ingest and manage all the data they need to transform their business by supporting their analytical, operational, and financial needs. 

Since our founding in 2017, Abacus has built a highly successful SaaS business, raising more than $81 Million from leading VC firms with deep expertise in the healthcare and technology industries. We are solving problems of massive scale and complexity in a sector that is not only ready for disruption. We're growing quickly and would love for you to be a part of it!
