QUINCY, Mass. – IntelyCare, the healthcare industry’s most comprehensive nurse talent platform, today announced that it has appointed Matthew Levesque as the new Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board of Directors. A veteran healthcare executive known for scaling mission-driven organizations, Levesque will lead the expansion of IntelyCare’s platform into a total talent solution, offering full- and part-time hiring, as well as temporary staffing for all types of nursing professionals in acute and post-acute settings.
“The demands of both nurses and healthcare facilities have shifted post-pandemic. To ensure care continuity, staffing models and the technology and services that support them must also evolve” Post this
Healthcare systems and facilities across the U.S. continue to grapple with a historic shortage of nursing staff coupled with a rapidly aging population and evolving federal and state regulations.
“The core of what we do at IntelyCare is putting nurses by the bedside where they are most needed. While we are known for staffing in skilled nursing settings — where our nursing team is rated highest for quality by facilities — it’s time to bring that expertise to more nurses in more diverse care settings,” said Levesque. “Our goal is not just to fill shifts. We are committed to providing a total talent solution that promotes quality care and nursing career development, while simultaneously meeting our partner clients’ unique staffing and hiring needs.”
Levesque brings nearly three decades of healthcare IT and two-sided marketplace experience to IntelyCare. He was previously the President and COO of Groups Recover Together, a national leader in value-based care for opioid addiction treatment. Prior to that, he served as CEO of connectRN, a provider of shift-based nurse labor. He also held key roles at athenahealth over a 12-year tenure, including Senior Vice President of Technology Enabled Services, during which the company grew from $100M to $1.3B in revenue. Earlier in his career, Levesque worked in operating roles at priceline.com and healthcare insurers Oxford Health Plans and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care.
Throughout his time in healthcare, Levesque has been passionate about building sustainable businesses with life-saving missions. His extensive experience uniquely positions him to scale businesses with multiple product lines and stakeholders amidst evolving regulatory challenges – all while preserving the highest standard of care.
“The demands of both nurses and healthcare facilities have shifted post-pandemic. To ensure care continuity, staffing models and the technology and services that support them must also evolve,” said David Coppins, Executive Chairman of the Board. “Matt has spent his career integrating technology with the needs of businesses and caregivers. He is the right person to lead the next evolution of IntelyCare.”
