“I could not be more excited to join Brightree at this time in the company’s history,” Mellott said. “Leading a home medical equipment provider has helped shape my understanding of what post-acute care providers value in a software partner. I’m looking forward to sharing those insights, accelerating Brightree’s already impressive pace of innovation, and further enhancing its customers’ ability to deliver exceptional care while building lasting businesses.”
Current Brightree president and CEO Dave Cormack will transition to a multi-year advisory role. Cormack joined Brightree in 2005 and greatly expanded the company from a 12-employee startup with fewer than 100 customers to a major player in the post acute software space, with annual revenues in excess of $100 million.
“The Brightree team has accomplished many amazing things in the last 11 years and I’ve been privileged to lead the company during that time,” Cormack said. “I’m delighted to welcome Matt to Brightree. He has been a highly successful leader in the HME industry, bringing with him fast-growth experience, and an excellent understanding of our customers’ needs.”
Brightree also announced that Bobby Ghoshal will serve as its chief operating officer. As COO, Ghoshal will oversee Brightree’s technology, product management initiatives, business operations and finance functions. An experienced information technology executive, Ghoshal was previously vice president of information technology in ResMed’s Americas group.
While ResMed acquired Brightree earlier this year, the software firm operates as a separate entity, managed independently with its headquarters remaining in Atlanta.
