In this episode, we sit down with Joe Fitzpatrick, Chief Executive Officer of Katch, for a forward-looking conversation on the evolution of subrogation and third-party liability (TPL) payment coordination. We explore how the landscape has shifted in recent years and the mounting pressures accelerating that change—from rising medical costs and regulatory complexity to increasing expectations around member experience and financial performance. Joe explains how Katch’s proactive, “shift-left” approach moves subrogation upstream in the payment process, helping organizations prevent avoidable costs before they hit the books—while preserving member trust and reducing administrative friction. Joe shares his perspective on the trends shaping the next era of payment coordination, and why traditional, retrospective subrogation models are reaching their limits. Joe brings decades of experience across health care delivery, payment, and transformation, including leadership roles at Optum and UnitedHealthcare. Throughout his career, he’s learned that the most impactful health care solutions emerge when leaders spot challenges early—and build systems that address them proactively, not reactively.
