Paradigm Management Services Names Marty Ovens as Senior Vice President of Regional Markets

CONCORD, CA, May 11 (MARKET WIRE) --
Paradigm Management Services, the nation's leading provider of
catastrophic medical management services, today announced the appointment
of industry veteran Marty Ovens as the Senior Vice President of Regional
Markets. In his new role, Ovens will lead Paradigm's regional sales
organization in growing and expanding the company's business.

During his 14-year term at Coventry Health Care, a leading Fortune 500
health care organization, Ovens has held various responsibilities
including sales and marketing positions while setting successful
strategies and building key client relationships. His leadership in the
large and midsize carrier, and state fund markets has been significant.

Earlier in his career, Ovens was Vice President of Sales and Operations
for ATC Consulting and Business Sales Manager for Liberty Mutual Insurance
Company. These experiences helped him develop expertise in complex sales,
sales leadership, strategic planning, business development and contract
negotiations.

"Marty excels at building long-term relationships," said Paradigm
President Kevin Fleming, "and it's that type of character that makes him
a perfect fit for our organization. Together with his broad industry
knowledge and insight into the inner workings of prospective clients, he
will help us expand our customer base by promoting our clinical and
financial excellence to a widening audience."

"I believe the future of this industry lies in specialty service providers
like Paradigm," said Ovens. "I have known Paradigm for more than a decade,
and their success in managing catastrophic injuries can surprise many
large insurance companies who tend to believe these highest dollar claims
are uncontrollable. Paradigm's growth potential feels similar to what I
experienced in the early stages of First Health, and I'm excited to play a
key role in the company's future."
