Rebekah Gee
Dr. Rebekah Gee is the founder and CEO of Nest Health, the first value-based primary, behavioral, and social care provider built for whole families on Medicaid, delivered through house calls and virtual visits from a base in New Orleans. An obstetrician-gynecologist and health-policy researcher, she ran the Louisiana Department of Health from 2016 to 2020, where she led Medicaid expansion and pioneered a subscription drug-payment model for hepatitis C. She was elected to the National Academy of Medicine in 2017 and now runs a startup that has raised a $22.5M Series A to scale care for the families the system tends to forget.
Sylvia Hastanan
Sylvia Hastanan is the founder and CEO of Greater Good Health, a Los Angeles medical group built entirely around nurse practitioners delivering primary care to seniors. A Penn-trained nurse who picked up Wharton business courses on the side, she spent nearly two decades inside HealthCare Partners, DaVita, and Optum before starting the company almost by accident during the pandemic. Greater Good Health has since raised a Series B and grown to roughly 120 employees, betting that an overlooked workforce can fix access where physician shortages can't.
David Pearlstein
David Pearlstein is the Chief Executive Officer of New Horizons In-Home Care, Oregon's largest in-home care agency with over 570 employees and 12 locations statewide. A serial entrepreneur with 30+ years spanning healthcare, insurance, and real estate, Pearlstein built and sold multiple companies before taking the helm at New Horizons — transforming it into an award-winning, people-first organization recognized for both care quality and employer culture. Based in Lafayette, California, he leads a company providing around-the-clock care to seniors, adults with disabilities, and medically fragile children across Oregon.
