Rob Mansell, currently CTO at Catalyte, combines backgrounds in Healthcare and Payments with the effectiveness of data driven talent acquisition at Catalyte.

Realizing the myriad of challenges facing payments in healthcare, yet the breadth of opportunity awaiting the innovator, Rob brings a focus from healthcare and payments to Catalyte’s ability to find, train, deploy and mentor diverse, technical, local talent from unusual places for companies to hire with no conversion fee.

Prior to Catalyte Rob was Head of Product Management for Payments & Print at Change Healthcare where he led innovation around new and existing products, and managed effective solution delivery through to the broader healthcare market.

When Change Healthcare needed to replace their four, legacy communication & print systems, Rob led a global evaluation of large Customer Communication Management solutions to select a best fit vendor solution for consolidating the four legacy systems of Change Healthcare.

Before making his move into healthcare processing, Rob spent a combined 20 years in the payments processing industry; from managing the Visa real-time, Debit & Credit global payments system’s product development teams, to managing the product development teams for PayPal’s Payments, Compliance and Money Market solutions globally.

While Rob’s final hoorah at Visa was his team’s reengineering of the global Visa Integrated Payment System to 100% availability, the focus at PayPal was more to develop and deliver many hundreds of new payments products and enhancements on time, with quality each year.

It is challenging in general to create an effective product vision and feel confident of market adoption, making POC’s a must. This is especially true in healthcare and Rob found POC’s effective in trialing a new ‘Event-Based’ patient billing product as an alternative to month-end billing.

As Rob hails from Australia, he finds family memories continue to be made during times of local and international travel, spending time with immediate and extended family. Rob moved to Portland, Oregon, 3 years ago with his wife, a daughter in high school and a son starting his career in IT, so life continues to be busy but interesting.
