Scott will be responsible for all aspects of GoodRx's relationships with physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and all healthcare professionals, including marketing and product development. This includes pharmacy strategy, clinical engagement, and industry partnerships.
By joining GoodRx, Scott will continue his nearly 30 years of successful service in the U.S. healthcare system. His diverse experience ranges from providing direct patient care to executive level leadership, growing revenue streams, enhancing patient care, scaling infrastructure, and forging industry partnerships for companies including Premier, Inc., Hitachi, In Scope Ventures, and more.
"Our path forward is laser-focused on improving the prescription experience for all stakeholders, from the retail pharmacies looking to innovate and drive profitability to the healthcare professionals seeking affordable medication solutions for their patients so they can adhere to their treatment plans," said Wendy Barnes, Chief Executive Officer and President of GoodRx.
