BPEA Expands Team to Accelerate Initiatives Related to the BPEA
Strategic Healthcare Funds
BOSTON, Aug. 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- BPEA, the Boston-based private equity firm established
in 2002, is pleased to announce that Matt
Plachta has joined the firm as Vice President of Healthcare
Partnerships. Matt will be focused on driving multiple initiatives
related to the BPEA Strategic Healthcare ("BPEA SHC") funds, their
Taft-Hartley investors and advisors, and investment companies.
The BPEA SHC funds invest on behalf of Taft-Hartley pension
funds and other institutional investors in private healthcare
companies, both directly and through specialist healthcare private
equity firms. BPEA SHC targets investments in healthcare
services and healthcare information technology companies that are
focused on addressing critical healthcare needs and improving
access to cost-effective, high-quality healthcare.
Prior to joining BPEA, Matt worked for over 18 years as a
healthcare benefits consultant and actuary for Taft-Hartley funds
and public entities. Matt left the healthcare benefits field
three years ago to embark on a career in sales for a private
equity-backed healthcare services company.
"Since the start of the BPEA Strategic Healthcare program, we've
believed that our large set of Taft-Hartley pension fund investors
has the potential to add strategic value to companies that provide
services to Taft-Hartley health plans or their members," said
Marcin Szajda, Partner. "We've
hired Matt to accelerate our work within the Taft-Hartley ecosystem
and our company investments."
"I'm delighted to join the BPEA team. I look forward to using my
broad experience as a healthcare benefits consultant and actuary,
along with my direct sales experience, to deepen BPEA's
relationships with our Taft-Hartley investors and to help our
investment companies address the needs of Taft-Hartley health and
welfare plans," said Plachta.
