December 5, 2018 – Octo Consulting Group’s Jay Shah, Executive Vice President for Healthcare and Commerce, was recognized as a 2019 FedHealthIT 100 award winner. This is Jay’s second time receiving this prestigious award, following his win in 2018. The FedHealthIT 100 honors those individuals recognized for driving change and advancement in the Federal Health Information Technology Market. Nominated and chosen by their peers, some common themes among those who were selected include the desire and willingness to challenge conventional wisdom, to go above and beyond, to drive innovation, and to give back to the larger Federal Health IT and Consulting community.

Octo has also grown its support to other healthcare focused agencies including AHRQ, CDC, CMS, FDA, DHA, and SAMHSA, expanding Octo’s reach into the civilian and defense health sectors.

“Octo is proud that Jay has been awarded a position in the coveted FedHealthIT 100 again this year,” said Octo CEO Mehul Sanghani. “His leadership of our Healthcare Business Unit has always been based on the premise that we support our customers’ needs first and foremost, and it is wonderful to see that his emphasis on our customers’ success has been recognized.”
