Eric Schultz joined Fallon Community Health Plan as President in 1999.

During his 26-year career, Schultz has consistently taken an active role in defining and implementing changes that have led to improvements and greater efficiencies in both the financing and delivery of health care. Under his leadership, FCHP emerged from significant financial losses, transforming from a regional group model health plan into a statewide health care services company. 

FCHP became the first HMO in Massachusetts to offer high-performance provider networks, and is the country’s only health plan that operates a Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly, called Summit ElderCare.

Eric holds an MBA in Health Care Leadership from Yale University’s School of Management, as well as a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from the University of Connecticut. He is President of the Mohegan Council Boy Scouts, and holds the rank of Distinguished Eagle Scout. Schultz is Vice Chairman of the Massachusetts Association of Health Plans. He also is a board member of The Kenneth B. Schwartz Center, the Worcester Regional Research Bureau, the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce, the New England Council and the Alliance of Community Health Plans in Washington, DC. In 2009, he received an honorary doctoral degree from the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.
