In addition to the management of New York State’s health care regulatory programs, Lisa played a critical role in the development and coordination of Medicare (at the federal level) and Medicaid (at both federal and State levels) budgets, worked collaboratively with the Governor and the Legislature on statewide health care delivery and financing issues and legislation implementing new State health care policies and programs.

 

Lisa continues to work on behalf of populations in need. She serves as a Trustee to the Elizabeth Seton Pediatric Center and serves on the New York State Department of Health Neurodegenerative Diseases Workgroup. Lisa has been designated by the Attorney General of New York State as the Independent Operator of a long-term care facility on Long Island to manage and improve the quality of care delivered to residents.

 

Lisa can’t say no so her personal time is limited but when not working or helping individuals you can find her cooking and spending time with her family, running, drawing or horseback riding with her dogs Cooper and Loki right by her side (Cooper & Loki, and Jake, aka the CHC Office Therapy Dogs).
