Joseph Neidig, CEO contact

Joseph is passionate about real health.  As VP of Operations and Officer at a mid-size automotive company, his leadership in healthcare drove innovations that provided direct financial incentives for “Healthy Behaviors” and lead to the first on-site clinic services in the tri-state area.  This combined work led to a reduction in total health care spending after year 2 by creating a healthier workforce.

During his tenure as President of the Tri-State Business Group on Health he sought innovations that drove value in accessing healthcare by:  implementing a Pharmacy Benefit Purchasing Program that eventually served over 13,000 lives, establishing a Health Leadership Counsel that connected Providers to Business and Education, and establishing Wellness Incentive Grants for tobacco cessation and weight loss.
