“AMPS is adding the necessary talent and experience it takes to deliver AMPS’ flexible, unmatched options to more self-funded employers in the marketplace,” notes Lawrence Thompson, chief revenue and strategy officer of AMPS. “As employers continue to take on more financial risks than ever before, it’s important they have access to transparent pricing with the ability to lower their costs. We’re ensuring they’re getting the help they need by adding professionals like John, Shawn, and Tim to our team.”
