Rising Medical Solutions Appoints Industry Veteran John Paolacci as Chief Operating Officer

CHICAGO, June 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Longtime managed care executive John Paolacci has joined Rising Medical Solutions (Rising) as the firm's Chief Operating Officer. In this role, John will be responsible for continuous product optimization through customer delivery for all of Rising's medical cost containment and medical care management services.

"Rising has the best medical management platform I've seen in the industry and the company clearly understands the critical role technology and artificial intelligence play in maximizing efficiencies and savings for clients," says Paolacci. "Equally impressive is Rising's investment in creating a dynamic culture that encourages ingenuity at every level of the organization. I look forward to being part of a team that is passionate about all aspects of the employee and customer experience."
