An accomplished leader with over 16+ years of experience, Venkata Nanduri comes from a technology background with a graduate degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He has helped the top 5 PBMs with onboarding technology to Medicare and Medicaid, ICD10, D.0 migration, Affordable Care Act (ACA) programs, and other industry changes. He has worked with Fortune 50 companies with architecture and technology solutions. Venkata has a successful track record for driving results through business-driven technology solutions that address regulatory and other enterprise strategic needs.
Over the last 6 years, Venkata has been focusing on AI/ML solutions for Fortune 50 companies driving lower prescription costs, improve drug coverage, reducing fraud, waste, and abuse. Application of Deep learning in the reduction of health care costs has been his importunate goal. He worked on various AI/ML algorithms ranging from logistic regression, Support Vector Machines to Deep Learning applying LSTM and ARIMA algorithms.
Venkata has co-invented three products at GalaxE Solutions: GxMaps™, GxDash™, and GxWave™. GxMaps™ and GxDash™ products help organizations with identifying their risky assets, opportunities to transform and modernize, leveraging dependency mapping, data lineage, automated business rules extraction, and test case generation. GxWave™ employs Deep Learning with customized LSTM algorithms in predicting prescription costs, volumes, optimizing drug pricing to bring the best prices to consumers. GxWave™ brought a big change in the lives of seniors at assisted living facilities by bringing help within the reach of a word via Alex and Google Hub skills. GxWave™ is helping payors in accelerating the timelines to bring Gene Therapy for hemophilia and PrEP for HIV to benefit plans, thus, helping tens of thousands of Americans in need.
