NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Brellium, the compliance platform trusted by 200+ healthcare organizations across the U.S., today announced that Dr. Andrey Ostrovsky, MD, will join as a strategic advisor.

Dr. Ostrovsky is managing partner at Social Innovation Ventures, where he invests in and advises companies and nonprofits dedicated to improving healthcare delivery and eliminating health disparities. He previously served as chief medical officer for the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services under both the Obama and first Trump administrations, where he helped lead the nation’s largest health insurer, covering nearly 90 million Americans. At CMS, he had a reputation for knowing when to push for efficiency and when to advocate for protecting critical coverage.

He will advise Brellium on compliance strategy, product development, and payer and provider relations. His appointment comes as providers face heightened enforcement activity and a rapidly shifting regulatory landscape, while payers navigate Medicaid work requirements, risk pool instability, and increased CMS audit scrutiny.

Dr. Ostrovsky brings a rare combination of insider policy experience and frontline clinical work. He has set federal policy at CMS, negotiated with state Medicaid programs, and operated methadone clinics himself — giving him a direct view into how compliance decisions are made and how they affect the organizations responsible for delivering care.

“Andrey knows how this system works better than almost anyone — and he has spent his career fighting to make sure healthcare works for all involved: providers, payers, and, most critically, patients,” said Zach Rosen, CEO of Brellium. “His perspective will make us better at both our mission and our business.”

“Documentation complexity and ambiguity get in the way of patient care,” said Dr. Ostrovsky. “Brellium is on a mission to simplify compliance for all parties, so that payers and providers have a shared understanding of what quality looks like. Doctors know the care billed will be the care they’re authorized to give. Patients don’t have surprise denials down the road. I’m glad to be part of it.”

About Brellium. Brellium is the compliance and quality platform for healthcare, analyzing every patient visit for quality, accuracy, and risk — helping provider groups stay compliant, reduce risk exposure, and deliver better patient outcomes.
