Kristie Bailey

I’m a seasoned executive leader with over 15 years of experience in managed care, payer-provider relations, and strategic operations. Known for driving operational excellence and optimizing performance across complex healthcare networks, I’ve led teams in payer contracting, value-based care initiatives, network development, provider credentialing and M&A integration. As Senior Vice President of Payer Contracting & Strategy at CareAbout Health MSO, I played a pivotal role in expanding payer relationships and value-based contracting, building clinically integrated networks, optimizing contract management and provider data management systems. In the payer space, I held senior leadership positions at Guidewell (Florida Blue Medicare), MVP Health Care, and Capital District Physicians Health Plan, where they led population health programs, Medicaid payment reform, and value-based contracting strategies. 

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Business Management & Economics from SUNY Empire State University. I’m a care advocate for two disabled vulnerable family members, Mom, & Gramma.
