Patient Advocates, LLC - President and Principal
Jim Ward’s unique approach to healthcare and patient advocacy stems from his belief that access to the highest quality healthcare results in greater cost-savings over time. His passion inspired him to create Patient Advocates in 1995, with a vision for a company committed to advancing healthy living and providing full support throughout a patient’s cycle of care.
Mr. Ward is a graduate of the University of Maine and Boston College School of Law. He has over 25-years experience in providing risk management services to some of Maine’s most prominent employers, including 6 years with an international consulting firm - the last 3 years as its Vice President. Having owned and operated one of the most successful 3rd-party claims administrators in northern New England, as well as starting the state’s first two Maine-owned managed health care companies, he understands the critical underlying operations necessary to provide the proper mix of claims management and employee services.
