Growing ECGs Managed Care expertise with Lumina
BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, March 4, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Lumina Health Partners has joined ECG Management Consultants, a leading healthcare consulting firm. The group, including Lumina’s cofounders, Daniel Marino and Lucy Zielinski, will integrate with ECG’s Payer Strategy and Contracting Division. The partnership brings even greater depth to ECG’s managed care expertise, particularly in value-based care, enhancing the firm’s ability to drive stronger alignment between providers and payers.
For nearly 10 years, Lumina has been a trusted adviser to hospitals, health systems, and medical groups, helping them improve performance and succeed in value based care arrangements. Lumina also helps organizations navigate complex population health, analytics, and technology challenges by combining strategic advisory services with deep clinical and operational expertise.
“Having just received multiple Best in KLAS awards in this space, we are proud of what we have accomplished together with our clients and will continue to add depth and breadth to keep pace with demand,” said Chris Collins, ECG’s CEO. “Dan, Lucy, and the Lumina team are not new to us and are highly respected in the market, so the decision to integrate was relatively easy and very exciting for both parties.”
Much like ECG, Lumina emphasizes collaboration in its client work, partnering with leadership teams to develop customized strategies that align with an organization’s culture and needs. Combined with ECG’s national scale, multidisciplinary expertise, and tech-enabled solutions, the partnership represents a highly complementary service offering for clients navigating value-based payment environments.
“We’re excited to join ECG because our philosophy at Lumina—meeting providers where they are on their value-based care journey and tailoring our support to their capabilities and goals—pairs perfectly with ECG’s approach to every engagement,” Marino said. “ECG’s long-standing commitment to partnership, national reputation for excellence, and proven track record of helping organizations achieve their most critical goals make it an ideal home for expanding the work we’ve done at Lumina.”
