Our CEO, Steve Sell, serves as an advisor to multiple health start-up companies and sits on several local and national boards. Our CMO, Ben Kornitzer MD, serves as a faculty member at the Icahn School of Medicine. And several agilon health executives are members of the Healthcare Transformation Task Force, a national think-tank founded to help shape and accelerate the country’s move to value-based payment and delivery models.
