3. Customer, GTM & Market Engagement

• Executive Single Point of Contact (SPOC): Build direct relationships with plan executives (CMOs, Chief Risk Officers, Actuarial Leads, VPs of Risk Adjustment) to understand operational pain points and serve as the product authority for strategic discussions and escalations.
