Virtual cardiometabolic care leader Vida Health announced the addition of Ravi Guha to its executive leadership team as Chief Financial Officer.
“I couldn’t be more thrilled to have Ravi as part of our leadership team at Vida,” said Vida Health CEO Joe Murad. “He has a wealth of value-based care and investment experience that I can’t wait to tap into during this exciting time of growth for Vida.”
Mr. Guha joins Vida from Heal, a home-based primary care and telehealth company recently acquired by Humana/Centerwell. While Heal’s Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Guha spearheaded the company’s transition from a fee-for-service urgent care provider to a value-based primary care model. Prior to Heal, Mr. Guha spent 17 years at Canyon Capital Advisors, a multi-asset multi-strategy investment firm, where he led the fund’s investments in the healthcare space.
“It’s an honor to be brought on to Vida to lead financial operations at this inflection point of growth for the company,” said Mr. Guha. “The company’s focus on obesity and diabetes management while guaranteeing outcomes becomes all the more important as companies grapple with rising pharmaceutical costs due to the rise of GLP-1’s.”
