Council Member
Sachin Bajpai is a healthcare technology executive with more than 20 years of experience leading data, analytics, and AI initiatives across every segment of the healthcare industry, including Payer, Provider, Life Sciences, and Government. His career reflects a rare end-to-end command of the healthcare ecosystem, built through a progression of increasingly senior roles at major consulting firms, technology companies, and product organizations.
Sachin Bajpai currently serves as Managing Director for Data, Analytics & AI at PwC Advisory (PricewaterhouseCoopers), a position he has held since June 2015. In this role, he leads strategy-through-execution engagements for healthcare clients, covering enterprise data and AI strategy, multi-year transformation roadmaps, and the development of AI and data products. He functions as executive sponsor and trusted advisor to C-suite leaders across Payer, Provider, and Life Sciences organizations, guiding decisions on modernization, M&A due diligence, build-versus-buy tradeoffs, and operating model design. Among his most significant achievements in this role, he scaled a 60-plus-member organization responsible for delivering a $35 million multi-year transformation program for a global pharmaceutical client, converting a paper-based, retrospective reporting function into a data-driven, insights-led business unit within three years. The program encompassed an AI Center of Excellence, Data Delivery, Analytics Enablement, Data Governance, Change Management, Stakeholder Communications, and a Program Management Office. He also conceived and delivered a next-generation Healthcare Command Center for a leading health system, accelerating care-continuum coordination and response times to improve patient outcomes while generating $18 million in year-over-year savings against a five-year investment. His client relationships span some of the most recognized names in the industry, including GE Healthcare, Amgen, Moderna, Astellas Pharma, Gilead Sciences, Boehringer Ingelheim, NEOM, Mayo Clinic, LabCorp, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Children's Hospital Boston, Blue Cross Blue Shield affiliates in Michigan, California, and Kansas, Molina, BMC WellSense, CVS, and the State of California.

Notably, he built and commercialized a Physician Performance Management analytics product aligned to CMS programs including PQRS, HEDIS, AHRQ, and ACO, growing the team from three to 24 members in two years and scaling the offering to more than $5 million in annual revenue, along with $400,000 in one-time licensing fees.
