Raul Smith
Stellar Health, a healthcare technology company focused on advancing value-based care, has appointed Raul Smith as Chief Financial Officer.
The appointment reflects the company’s continued focus on aligning incentives across the care continuum and enabling health plans and providers to achieve measurable clinical and financial outcomes.
Smith joins Stellar Health with over 20 years of experience in healthcare leadership. He previously spent six years at Elevance Health (Anthem), where he served as President and CFO of the East Region. In that role, he managed an US$8 billion P&L, oversaw care delivery for approximately 550,000 Medicare Advantage members, and led operations across 17 clinics in Florida. Most recently, he served as CFO for Duo Health and Gold Kidney Health Plan.
At Stellar, Smith will play a key role in strengthening the company’s financial strategy and scaling its tech-enabled platform. His experience on the payer side is expected to support Stellar’s efforts to drive deeper provider engagement across complex, multi-payer environments. The company’s platform simplifies value-based care models into actionable insights, helping clinical teams address care gaps and improve outcomes across quality, risk adjustment, and cost management.
In addition, Smith will oversee the financial growth of Stellar’s at-risk portfolio, including its tech-enabled accountable care organization, shaco. Building on its US$5 million in Medicare savings in 2024, Stellar aims to further refine its value-based care models and expand its provider network under his financial leadership.
