Washington, D.C. (September 15, 2022) – The Alliance of Community Health Plans (ACHP) has named Mathew Gulick to lead its communications department. In his role as Communications Director, Gulick will oversee internal and external communications initiatives as a member of ACHP’s Senior Leadership Team and will play a key role in promoting ACHP’s advocacy agenda by developing comprehensive strategies to promote the unique payer-provider partnership model in health.
“We are thrilled to welcome Mat to the ACHP team,” said ACHP President and CEO Ceci Connolly. “Mat’s deep knowledge across the health industry and unique skill set will be a valuable asset for advancing the agenda of ACHP and its members as leading voices on innovative, patient-centered coverage and care.”
