Quality Matters: A Podcast by NCQA

In this episode, we talk with two leaders of an amazing NCQA partner company, Cozeva, while revisiting one of NCQA’s cutting edge digital products, our Data Aggregator Validation program [DAV]. Cozeva, a member of the original program cohort, is an integrated, comprehensive population health platform.

Our Data Aggregator Validation program now forms the backbone of Cozeva’s services. Cozeva currently provides health care data solutions to nearly 37,000 providers across 16 states. For more details on NCQA's data analysis work, check out our Data Measures Roadmap.

Dr. Khanh Nguyen is Chief Executive Officer of Cozeva. Khanh has a doctorate from the University of California San Francisco School of Pharmacy, focusing on health policy and management. She has over 15 years of experience in creative payer-provider collaborations. Khanh is an expert in data crunching, discussing how improving and easing the flow of health care data will then improve efficiency for both payers and providers.

Dr. Rosh Singh is Cozeva’s Chief Technology Officer. In his over eight years with Cozeva, Rosh was previously VP of Product Management, and before that, Director of Analytics. He has a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Cornell and over 15 years experience combining product management with A.I. and machine learning. He creates what he calls “decision science,” finding hard- and soft-tech solutions that support multi-billion-dollar transactions.
