SAN DIEGO — Dec. 19, 2023 - (PR NEWSWIRE) — Zerigo Health, a digital health platform for the treatment of chronic skin conditions, today announces the appointment of Tim Raducha-Grace as Chief Platform Officer.
Raducha-Grace joins Zerigo Health after leading commercial and product teams across the healthcare industry, including venture-backed and Fortune 20 companies. Most recently, he served as Head of Clinical Partnerships at Harbor Health, where he built a high performing clinically integrated network including partnerships with leading health systems. Prior to Harbor Health, he led product and go to market functions for CVS's kidney care and home business units.

Zerigo Health is the first connected phototherapy platform that empowers people to better manage their chronic skin conditions and reduces the costs and risks associated with expensive pharmaceutical treatments. By coupling its FDA-cleared, handheld NB-UVB light device with a smartphone app and experienced team of care providers, Zerigo puts people in charge of their care, enabling them to self-administer clinical light therapy cost effectively, in the convenience of their home or wherever they may be.
"Skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema affect about 40 million Americans and add about $60 billion in healthcare costs," said Raducha-Grace. "Yet, traditional treatment options are often inaccessible, uncomfortable, and expensive. I'm excited to join the Zerigo Health team to expand our platform and get it in the hands of the patients who need it most. When patients receive care that is clinically appropriate, affordable, and convenient, they can stop worrying about their skin and be free to focus on what matters most to them."
