SAN DIEGO – CSI Financial Services (CSI) has appointed Shawn Lane as vice president, regional sales manager. Lane will be responsible for cultivating and closing new client opportunities and for managing existing client activities within a territory of 10 states, including New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont and Delaware.
Lane will be based in Woburn, Mass.
Established in 1992, CSI Financial Services has been providing “peace of mind” to healthcare providers and patients by funding more than a half billion dollars in no- and low-interest patient loan programs to hospitals nationwide, thereby allowing patients to meet their self-pay obligations.
“Shawn’s background as a healthcare consultant offers new and existing CSI clients a resource to creatively help find solutions to many of their financial challenges, particularly as they relate to the explosive growth of self-pay patients,” Mitch Patridge, CSI’s chief executive officer said. “The leadership that Shawn displays, dating to his experiences as an Officer and F-16 Fighter Pilot in the United States Air Force, will be an asset to our clients who are contending with a multitude of economic issues and who are looking to help address those issues by accelerating their cash from self-pay receivables while reducing their overall bad debt.”
Prior to joining CSI Financial Services, Lane served as tactical operational lead for Jacobs Technology, one of the nation’s largest engineering and technical services-only companies, and was a director of northeast business development for EJB World Trade, a Charlotte-based firm that delivers technology solutions to enhance cash flow for its hospital clients. Lane also served for 10 years in the United States Air Force, during which time he served a tour of duty as an F-16 Fighter Pilot in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Lane is also a sought-after speaker for regional and national speaking events. With a particular focus on the healthcare community, Lane is a member of, and has spoken for, the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA), the American Association of Healthcare Administrative Management (AAHAM), and the National Association of Healthcare Access Management (NAHAM).
Lane holds a Bachelor’s degree in business management from the United States Air Force Academy and a Master’s degree in business administration from Touro University International. He is currently working on his Ph.D. in organizational leadership.
