Greg Shelley Joins Vālenz Team as Senior Client Services Executive
PHOENIX, Ariz. (January 8, 2020) — In keeping with an ongoing commitment to expand its services and client base, leaders at Vālenz™ are pleased to announce the appointment of Greg Shelley as Senior Client Services Executive. Shelley joined the team at Vālenz – a leading innovator for solutions that connect cost and quality data on a single, end-to-end analytics platform to reduce medical claim costs and promote quality healthcare – in late December.
“Greg brings a unique mix of strengths to this role, including his skills in relationship-building, client service, strategic execution and data analysis,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Revenue Officer. “Those attributes, combined with his consultative spirit and passion for helping clients solve challenges, have positioned him well to bring new solutions to Valenz clients. We are proud to have him on board.”
“It’s an honor to join the Valenz team because the promise of ‘smarter, better, faster healthcare’ is so compelling and, more important, so in demand,” said Shelley. “More than most, the people of Valenz understand how to reduce the total cost of care and have been making the smart, strategic moves necessary to bring results-driven solutions to our clients.”
As a candidate, Shelley was drawn to the firm’s innovative approach to data science. Now, as a member of the team, he says he’s wholly inspired by it and looks forward to finding new ways to foster ongoing growth. With a degree in Business Administration from West Texas A&M University, Shelley has held a variety of management and leadership roles, most recently at One Call, a provider of healthcare solutions for the workers’ compensation industry, where he served as vice president of business development.
