Chris Severn
Chris Severn is the co-founder and CEO of Turquoise Health, a San Diego company building software to make healthcare pricing transparent and to simplify the way hospitals and insurers contract and pay each other. After a decade modeling hospital managed-care contracts and running machine learning for payment integrity, he started Turquoise in 2020 with engineer Adam Geitgey, pivoting into federal price-transparency rules just as they took effect. The company has aggregated price data from thousands of hospitals and, in March 2026, raised a $40 million Series C led by Oak HC/FT to become what Severn calls the operating system for healthcare contracts and payments. He also teaches improv comedy and has testified before Congress on price transparency.
