Danny Patterson

Software Architect and Development Leader

Danny is a healthcare technology executive with 20+ years of experience building and leading platforms. As CTO of Ramp Health, he leads a cross-functional team across Engineering, User Experience, Analytics, Operations, and Health Outcomes. The platform serves hundreds of providers across many provider types.

His responsibility is to drive technology innovation across the platform, and a major thrust of his current work is transforming healthcare services through AI-native capabilities. His team has shipped AI features spanning provider workflows (in-session quality support, care continuity recommendations), member experience (post-visit guidance, personalized content at scale), and clinical operations (structured FHIR extraction of medical history and biometrics). Underneath sits a multi-model evaluation framework that benchmarks Anthropic Claude, Amazon Nova, and Google Gemini for clinical use cases, providing vendor flexibility and continuous quality assessment as the model landscape evolves. He's a named inventor on a USPTO-issued patent for personalized health recommendations, and has maintained HITRUST r2, SOC 2 Type II, and NCQA certifications with 99.99% uptime across platforms.

Earlier in his career, he spent two decades on software architecture and platform leadership for Fortune 500 brands and venture-backed startups across media, commerce, and healthcare, and authored two technical books with Adobe Press along the way.

He's always interested in conversations about applied AI in healthcare, multi-model evaluation, or building durable platforms in regulated environments.
