A seasoned healthcare professional with deep expertise in client success, strategic partnerships, and employer healthcare navigation, LaGrange brings close to a decade of leadership experience across Healthcare Bluebook and Valenz (which acquired Healthcare Bluebook in 2024). In her new role, LaGrange will spearhead the strategic advancement of the Valenz Bluebook platform to deliver more value to employers and employees, with a focus on improving the member experience for increased engagement, utilization, and reduction in plan spend.

Originally launched in 2007 as Healthcare Bluebook, Valenz Bluebook helps employers and their members identify high-value healthcare by bringing cost and quality information together in an easy-to-use navigation experience. Using extensive claims data and outcomes information, the platform gives members greater visibility into where to receive care while helping employers reduce healthcare costs.

As SVP & GM, LaGrange will guide product strategy, innovation, commercial growth, client success, and market expansion for the entire Valenz Bluebook solution suite — supporting the Valenz mission of advancing healthcare through technology and expertise to optimize cost, quality, access, and utilization for all.

“I’m incredibly honored to lead Valenz Bluebook into its next chapter,” said LaGrange. “I’ve seen firsthand the impact this solution can have for our clients and members, and I’m excited to build on that strong foundation as we continue to advance, grow, and make high-value healthcare easier to identify and access.”
