Vālenz, a leading innovator for solutions that reduce medical claim costs and promote quality healthcare, has recently expanded its strategic acumen by welcoming Colin Glen to the executive team. Glen is now Vice President of Business for Vālenz Assurance, which delivers solutions for assured compliance and payment integrity as part of the firm’s comprehensive health administrative ecosystem.

Having held leadership positions at such firms as Intelligent Medical Solutions, Oration, WhiteCloud Analytics and, most recently, Relias, Glen brings nearly 20 years’ experience to his new role.

“Throughout his career, Colin has excelled at serving the needs of the health industry with technology and data-driven solutions,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Revenue Officer at Valenz. “He has an in-depth understanding of our clients’ needs and how to address them with our innovative and uniquely comprehensive platform. We are thrilled to have him on the Valenz team.”

Glen is well-positioned to support the Valenz growth strategy – and that growth, he says, is a key component to smarter, better, faster healthcare. “We ensure the integrity of data for clients who rely on our coding, compliance and credentialing solutions, as well as for the Valenz ecosystem,” Glen explained. “Ultimately, our solutions positively affect our clients’ capacity to reduce costs while improving care quality and outcomes.”
