Robert E. Andrews currently serves as the CEO of the Health Transformation Alliance (HTA).
As CEO of the HTA, Andrews oversees the strategic direction of approximately 60+ major corporations that have come together in an alliance to do one thing: fix our broken healthcare system. Formed by four founding members in September 2015, the HTA member companies collectively are responsible for more than 8 million employees, dependents, and retirees with an annual healthcare spend of $30+ billion.

Through Andrews’ leadership, the HTA has launched value-driven solutions specifically designed to
improve patient care and economic value through world-class data and analytics, pathbreaking
pharmaceutical solutions, high-quality medical networks, and robust consumer engagement initiatives. To date, the cooperative has saved its member companies well over $2 billion in healthcare costs. Andrew’s leadership has been equally important in the HTA developing programs addressing racial and ethnic disparities in health care, mental health issues, and safe return-to-work programs following the pandemic.

Andrews led the Government Affairs practice at Dilworth Paxson law firm for two years before joining the HTA. Prior to private practice, Andrews served as a Member of the United States House of Representatives for nearly 24 years. Upon his departure from Congress, President Barack Obama praised Andrews’ service as “an original author of the Affordable Care Act...and a vital partner in its passage and implementation,” and cited his “tenacity and skill” in representing the people of New Jersey.
