Brandon Danz currently works as a Health Care Reform Consultant working with health systems and health care companies to help them navigate the fast-paced regulatory environment that dominates the health care industry. With Medicare and Medicaid making up and average 57 percent of hospital revenue nationwide, health systems, health care providers, and service vendors must successfully adapt to regulatory change in order to sustain long-term financial stability. Public policy has growing impact on operational margins, on service delivery models, use of technology, and on payment methodologies. Mr. Danz is an active member in his community, participating in the American College of Healthcare Executives, Healthcare Financial Management Association, American Public Health Association, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. He also volunteers his time as the President of the Board of Directors of the Library System of Lancaster County. Mr. Danz previously worked for the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services as a Special Advisor to the Secretary. The PA Department of Human Services (DHS) is one of the largest state human service agencies in the nation with over 17,000 staff and an annual operating budget of $32 billion. As Special Advisor to the Secretary of the Agency, he was deeply involved with change management at the executive level during a time of great uncertainty and fast-paced reform within the healthcare industry. Mr. Danz received a Master of Health Administration from Pennsylvania State University, a Master of Public Administration from Shippensburg University, and Bachelor of Arts in History from Millersville University.
