NEW YORK CITY—Equiva Health, a digital patient engagement and health relationship management solution provider, announced the addition of Scott P. Jones as the company’s chief operating officer (COO).
Jones brings to this role extensive experience in operations and technology senior leadership at global Fortune 500 companies including CIGNA, CVS Health and Expedia as well as at private equity-owned emerging companies and start-up businesses including Asurion and ConnectiveRx. He has a breadth and depth of expertise in building new capabilities, scaling operations to enable rapid growth and leading the evolution and maturation of immature processes.
In the Equiva COO role, Jones will be responsible for Equiva Health’s operations, product and technology functions. He will focus on expanding the company’s technical and operational capabilities to enable the continued growth of the company.
“Equiva brings to the market more than a decade of experience collaborating with health care organizations around innovation in patient experience, digital engagement and patient activation,” said Equiva CEO and Co-Founder Nir Altman. “Scott is an excellent complement to our team. He brings knowledge and passion as we move Equiva to new heights in our focus to help healthcare organizations advance health equity, improve health outcomes and drive financial success.”

The appointment of Jones as COO builds upon recent momentum at Equiva Health. The company most recently announced a partnership with internet service provider Infiniti Mobile and the launch of its ACP Connect Program. This first-of-its-kind offering serves as a catalyst in helping health care organizations advance enrollment in the FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program and engage digitally with individuals for targeted population health, care management and health equity initiatives.
