ABOUT
PETER J. LOPEZ, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
After a decade working for several Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) in their Medicare and Medicaid departments responsible for sales, outreach, compliance and Provider engagement, among other responsibilities, Peter J. Lopez cultivated knowledge and experience interacting with The Agency of Health Care Administration (AHCA) and The Center of Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) compliance and regulations departments. During this time, Mr. Lopez acquired knowledge in contracting with, and providing consultation services to, Assisted Living Facilities.
Mr. Lopez has been licensed in the State of Florida to sell health insurance (2-15) since 2010. He organized Sainz Management Group in 2019, leveraging his relationships with payors and providers to serve the long-term care community.
“After 10 years working for the three largest Long-Term Care Medicaid insurers and seeing the hardship operators and owners of ALF’s experience, I decided to work for them. Let me help them cut through the red tape that the State and Federal agencies present. It’s hard enough keeping up with all the regulations AHCA/CMS imposes and that is why I decided to open up Sainz Management Group – Peter J. Lopez.”
