Smith’s move to Mnet Health builds upon decades of experience in healthcare technology. Most recently, he served as Chief Revenue Officer at eSolutions, a leading healthcare revenue cycle management (RCM) company, where he oversaw rapid expansion and growth. Previously, Smith served as Chief Commercial Officer of Global Healthcare Exchange, the leading provider of healthcare supply chain solutions, where he oversaw strategy, product, and rapid market expansion, penetrating 85% of the U.S. hospital and supplier market.
