Mr. Ray’s joining augments the Healthcare Industry Group’s ability to develop bespoke, technology-driven solutions for health care services organizations to advance growth and profit goals.

Mr. Ray brings more than 20 years of health care and life sciences platforms, data science, information technology, products and operations experience to A&M.

Mr. Ray works across the PE spectrum and has supported thousands of unique processes for hundreds of portfolio company and strategic clients.

“The current landscape of market disruption, economic volatility and regulatory shifts demands a 360-degree perspective and a fluency in the unique challenges facing healthcare and life sciences clients.

Mr. Ray focuses on developing expertise across high volume acquisitive areas, as well as new and evolving niches, across multiple health care sub-sectors including providers, payers, life sciences, insurance and health care information technology (HCIT). Noted for his ability to apply this approach, he helps large strategics build out or retool their merger and acquisitions (M&A) capabilities.

“Nathan’s hiring highlights the practice’s commitment to meet clients’ emerging needs with data-driven solutions focused on where technology is and where it’s going, said David Schlissel, an A&M Healthcare Industry Group Managing Director and leader of its Healthcare Services Practice.
