KNOXVILLE, Tenn., October 22, 2020 (Newswire.com) - We are excited to announce that David T. Boucher, former president and chief operating officer of UCI Medical Affiliates, is joining the Taskforce team in Skopje, Macedonia.  As Chief Strategy Officer, David will lead Taskforce's strategic growth and quality control initiatives.

David brings with him a wealth of knowledge. Most recently, he served as chief business transformation officer at Bumrungrad International Hospital in Thailand, which is consistently recognized as one of the world's best hospitals for medical tourism. 

At UCI Medical Affiliates, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina, David's strategic insight pioneered the development of real-time medical coding, allowing Doctors Care to accelerate its revenue cycle, increase accuracy and compliance, while cutting billing cost for its 55 urgent care clinics. Under David's leadership, Doctors Care was among the first U.S. urgent care groups to implement telemedicine, which positioned it to deliver best-in-class services to its customers during the COVID pandemic.

As President of Companion Global Healthcare from 2006-2016, Boucher was recognized as a pioneer in employer-focused medical travel benefits. In this role, he secured alliances with 22 international hospitals, which provided Blue Cross subscribers with an affordable option to receive medically necessary procedures ranging from hip and knee replacements to spleen removals and heart valve replacements.
