MIDDLEBURY — The UVM Health Network Porter Medical Center Board of Directors welcomed Nicholas F. Lovejoy as a new member of the board at their monthly meeting in December.
A resident of Weybridge, Lovejoy is the co-founder and CEO of Staple Health Inc., a software platform that uses artificial intelligence to identify the clinical and social drivers of risk in a patient population. According to Lovejoy, Staple Health “takes a holistic look at what’s truly driving an individual’s health outcomes from a clinical, social and community perspective, then assists caregivers in taking the optimal course of action.”
Lovejoy is a 2009 graduate of St. Lawrence University and earned his Master’s in Public Health and Management at Yale University in 2016.  He has co-authored two publications that have appeared in Population Health Management and the Diabetes Care Journal.
His volunteer activities include the Appalachian Mountain Club and the Middlebury Volunteer Fire Department.
“We are pleased to welcome Nick to our board and we are confident that his background and expertise in healthcare and public health policy will be invaluable” said UVM Health Network Porter Medical Center Board Chair Sivan Cotel.
