WASHINGTON—The National Alliance for Care at Home (The Alliance) appointed Scott Levy as its inaugural chief government affairs officer. With more than 20 years of experience in government relations, public policy, advocacy and law, Levy aims to lead The Alliance’s legislative and regulatory changes and expand access to quality homecare.
“Scott Levy is an extraordinary addition to our leadership team,” said Steve Landers, CEO of The Alliance. “He brings a deep understanding of health care policy, politics and a great sensitivity to the intersection of public policy and health care operations and how policy impacts patients and families. His track record of success, combined with his dedication to improving care at home, makes him an invaluable addition to our team.”
In his role with The Alliance, Levy will be responsible for a team of advocacy professionals and will work closely with policymakers, industry stakeholders and grassroots networks to address industry challenges, including provider reimbursement, regulatory hurdles, improving quality and program integrity, and advancing innovative care models.
“I am honored and humbled to join the inaugural executive leadership of The Alliance,” Levy said. “This opportunity allows me to leverage and maximize my nearly ten years of experience in advocating for home health and hospice on the state and national level. I am eager to get started in strategically positioning the industry and aggressively pursuing public policy that ensures all Americans can access quality care in the home. I look forward to working with and leading a unified care at home community as we make our positions known and voices heard in Washington.”
Most recently, Levy served as chief government affairs officer at Amedisys, an at-home health care provider, where he helped secure legislative and regulatory reforms, including payment model adjustments and value-based care expansions. He has served in various public service roles with government branches at both the state and federal level, in which he gained government operations and policymaking experience. Additionally, he has worked as a lawyer, advocating for clients in regulatory settings and in the courtroom.
