Mr. Auerbach brings more than 30 years of healthcare benefits experience having most recently served as the CEO of Alegeus, a leading benefit administration platform in consumer directed healthcare.

Vassallo, Managing Partner of Lightyear said, "Steve did an outstanding job with Alegeus for us, and we look forward to bringing his years of experience to bear at the HPOne board."

"Steve's proven track record of growing industry-leading healthcare businesses like Connextions and Alegeus is a big asset to HPOne," said HPOne CEO Bill Stapleton.

"I am excited to work with the amazing team at HPOne as they continue to advance their health insurance shopping platform. The opportunities are tremendous for the business as it works to simplify the complex process of buying health insurance for senior citizens," said Steve Auerbach.
