Sam Brownell of CUCollaborate made this post on LinkedIn last week:I am thrilled to announce that CUCollaborate is incubating its first CUSO to pursue "the best idea I have ever had" and that I have successfully recruited Paul Matsui to lead it for us.The CUSO leverages credit unions' superior pricing to help patients more easily manage their healthcare expenses. Rather than financing medical debt itself, the CUSO uncovers alternative debt expense reduction opportunities that help patients pay off their medical bills successfully without increasing monthly cash outlays or making painful sacrifices. By establishing a meaningful partnership between credit unions and healthcare providers, we will foster healthier, wealthier, and more equitable communities.The CUSO is fundamentally a healthcare facing company, so I have been lucky enough to recruit Paul Matsui who has over 20 years of experience working with healthcare providers to lead the organization. Most recently, Paul served as Chief Strategy Officer and Chief of Staff at Socially Determined a software and analytics company focused on elevating health equity and outcomes through the quantification and stratification of social risk.Previously, Paul spent 19 years at the Advisory Board (with my wife Megan Brownell) serving as Executive Director of its data analytics research and technology business, where he was accountable for developing a software ecosystem aimed at the firm's 2,000+ hospital and health system clients.Earlier in his career, Paul spent six years as an equity research analyst, covering a wide range of companies in the biotechnology, medical device, and medical technology supply sectors on behalf of Smith Barney Citi, Goldman Sachs, and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. Piper Jaffray.Beginning his career as a bench scientist, Paul worked in labs at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School. He holds an AB degree in biochemistry and molecular biology from Harvard University.If you are interested, we would like to schedule some time for Paul and I to present the opportunity to you and see if it something that your credit union would be interested in helping launch. What day and time would work best for you?
