Tom Cox, MBA, Joins Vālenz Team as Vice President of Client Services
PHOENIX, Ariz. (January 8, 2020) — To support continuous expansion of the Vālenz™ ecosystem and deliver solutions that meet the ever-evolving needs of their clients and partners, Valenz officials today announced the appointment of Tom Cox, MBA, as Vice President of Client Services. Cox joins the team in mid-January to lead the client services and business development support teams.
“Tom has a deep conviction for delivering service excellence and creating value for clients, partners and shareholders,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Revenue Officer. “His leadership experience and ability to leverage data for client solutions have positioned him well to head up our client services team.”
Cox says he has always been passionate about delivering service excellence because he believes great service is the key to strong, long-lasting relationships. In addition to overseeing client services – the first point of contact for the firm’s large and growing client base – Cox plays a key role in data-driven growth and development of existing business.
“With healthcare as complex as it is, I am really excited about the depth of Valenz analytics,” said Cox. “We have a great line of sight into client trends and needs, allowing us to pinpoint opportunities to truly bend the cost curve in healthcare.”
Having held a number of leadership positions in customer service, most recently at Philadelphia Insurance Companies and Aqua America, Cox brings extensive experience to his new role. He earned his master’s degree from Arcadia University in Pennsylvania after completing his bachelor’s degree in psychology from the State University of New York at Albany. He is also nationally certified in coaching, training and facilitation. His education, combined with more than a decade of versatile business experience, has inspired Cox to deliver creative approaches, fresh thinking and data-driven insights to service delivery.
