Craig Kurtzweil

In 2005, Craig joined UnitedHealthcare to begin forming a team of strategic customer analytic specialists. That team is focused on leveraging clinical, financial and consumer behavior healthcare data in a strategic customer dialog. Their goal is to partner with employers, helping them to maintain healthcare affordability and increase their competitive advantage with a healthy and productive workforce. Craig served many customers himself and many more through his team. He was also accountable for the continual innovation of analytic tools nationally, supporting commercial, public sector and government programs. Those innovations focused on the ability to hot spot subsets of the population to focus on the communities in need of interventions. Starting in 2013, Craig assumed the role of Senior Vice President of Analytic Innovations for UnitedHealth Group. In this role, he focused on analytic innovations, community health analytics and complex customer support for UHG. He leveraged the breadth of UHG’s data to create actionable insights across a wide array of audiences ranging from customers to communities to policy makers. He focused on spreading best practice innovations across the UHG enterprise to impact all of the members that it serves. Craig also served as an Innovation Champion for the enterprise. Beginning in 2016, Craig transitioned into UnitedHealthcare to focus on enhancing the role that analytics plays in our ability to support our National Account customers. Craig formed the Center for Advanced Analytics to focus on analytic innovations that change the way we evaluate health care value. His team also focuses on the largest most complex clients that require a deeper and broader view of data, ranging from cost and utilization data to productivity and disability exposure. He is constantly working on inventing the next generation of healthcare analytics.
