Jeff Lamb began his career with IBM in 1980 to 1987. Leading one of IBM’s largest accounts, Federal Express, Jeff was a consistent performer with numerous 100% clubs and Golden Circle.
In 1987, Jeff left IBM to start Venture SystemSource, Inc., a technology company specializing in the distribution and leasing of IBM and refurbished IBM
equipment. For over 19 years that company had an annual growth rate of 25% reaching $93mm in annual sales. Venture grew with offices in 8 cities reaching from Manhattan in New York City to its headquarters in Jackson, MS. The company was sold to private equity in 2006.
While leading Venture SystemSource, Inc. Jeff started another company in 1996, to meet new opportunities using the internet in healthcare.

The application went on to become one of the first successful Health Information Exchange applications in the country with the Western North Carolina Data Link project. Today, the application is installed in hundreds of hospitals across the United States and Canada. AccessPt., the portal, was sold to Medseek, Inc. in 2006.
Having interfaced to over 175 clinical applications, Jeff wanted to learn the financial side of healthcare and joined OPTUM in 2008 to learn the healthcare revenue cycle, claims, denial management, ICD9 and ICD10 coding, Computer Assisted Coding, Accountable Care Organizations and continue in his knowledge of Health Information Exchange.
With the emphasis in Accountable Care achieving the Triple Aim (highest patient satisfaction, best outcome and the lowest cost), along with Patient Engagement and Education, Jeff immediately took hold of the advantages of short form video and joined the Transilio team.
