2015 Power List
Alan Murray has quite the resume. The former second officer in the British Merchant Navy spent more than four years as vice president of the New York market at United Healthcare, where he was responsible for maintaining a network of more than 220 hospitals and more than 60,000 physicians across the state. As president and CEO of CareConnect—a “healthier” insurance company founded by Northwell Health, formerly North Shore-LIJ Health System—Murray oversees all aspects of its Medicare, Medicaid and commercial lines. He ensures the company remains focused on its core mission: providing affordable, personalized, high-quality care. CareConnect’s network provides access to some of the best hospitals and physicians in the region, and also includes more than 30 local urgent care centers and nearly 1,000 walk-in clinics across the country. CareConnect puts members first, and it’s Murray who has been responsible for the company’s strategic, patient-centered direction and remarkable success.
