Michael Lovett
Consensus Health, a leading physician-owned and -governed medical group comprised of more than 150 New Jersey-based independent primary care providers and specialty doctors across more than 60 locations, announced today the appointment of Chief Operating Officer Michael Lovett to the additional post of president.
Lovett joined Consensus Health as COO in May 2021 and also held the title of interim president since October 2022. Since initially joining the Company, he has significantly contributed to its overall strategic plan and direction as well as the rapid expansion of its growing medical practices.
In this new capacity, Lovett will oversee day-to-day operations of both the Company and its affiliated medical practices along with finance, sales and marketing, value-based care (VBC) initiatives and human resources/compliance.
Lovett brings 25 years of related healthcare experience to his role. Prior to Consensus Health, he served as COO at Northwell Direct, a division of Northwell Health, during which time he focused on building a new direct-to-employer health services business. Earlier, he was chief commercial officer at Formativ Health, also a Northwell-affiliated company, which leveraged technology to improve many facets of healthcare services and the patient experience. Lovett’s eight years of serving in roles of increasing responsibility at NextGen Healthcare (a healthcare IT company providing electronic health records and practice management tools), also well-positioned him for this healthcare services role. Prior, Lovett held various roles spanning business development, sales and operations at a range of healthcare companies, including a 10-year stint at WebMD Practice Services.
Lovett holds a Bachelor of Science degree in organizational management and finance from Wilmington University in New Castle, Dela. and a Master of Business Administration degree in executive leadership from the Alfred Lerner College of Business & Economics at the University of Delaware in Newark, Dela.
