Seattle-based health care tech company Optimize Health has named Ryan Clark as its new CEO.

Clark, who has worked at Optimize Health for almost three years, announced his new role in a February LinkedIn post. He is replacing Todd Haedrich, who left Optimize Health last month after leading the company for more than two years.

"I am incredibly honored to have the opportunity to help author the next chapter of the Optimize Health story as CEO," Clark wrote in the post. "I have been lucky to be surrounded by pragmatic, strategic leaders through the last decade working in health care technology."

Clark's most recent role at Optimize Health before becoming CEO was senior vice president of client solutions, according to his LinkedIn page. Before joining Optimize Health in 2021, he spent close to seven years at Phreesia, a software tool to help with administrative health care tasks.

Optimize Health, founded in 2015, makes software to help monitor patients remotely. Users can see trends in patients' vital signs, and the technology offers a way to call and text with patients. The platform can also share treatment plans with other medical professionals. Optimize Health says its software has supported 30,000 patients.

The company was previously called Pillsy. It raised a $15.6 million Series A round in 2020 and a more than $18 million Series B round in October of last year. At the time of its 2020 raise, Optimize Health had 30 employees. The company has more than 80 employees listed on LinkedIn now.

Haedrich is now the CEO of the Oxford, England-based mental health tech company Oxehealth, his LinkedIn page shows, but he is still a strategic adviser to Optimize Health. Before joining Optimize Health in 2021, he spent more than two years as chief commercial officer at the veterinary tech company Covetrus.
