Carbon Health founder steps back from top role
Carbon Health‘s chief executive and co-founder Eren Bali is taking a step back from the primary care tech company, returning instead to the education company Udemy he co-founded as its chief technology officer, he announced in a Tweet late last week. “Udemy is my first baby. It has a special place in my heart and I was always on the board, so never disconnected from the company,” he said. Carbon’s chief operating officer Kerem Ozkay will take over as CEO, and Bali will remain executive chairman at Carbon, he said in the post.
It’s just the latest high level leadership change at the company that launched with a focus on hybrid business model trying to combine the best of virtual and in-person care. Carbon has since invested increasingly in blending AI into its homegrown health record that it is marketing to other provider groups. Myoung Cha, formerly Carbon’s president and chief strategy officer, joined Verily earlier this year as its chief product officer.
