Truvian Health has appointed David P. King to its Advisory Board. King has decades of diagnostics and business experience as well as a track record of advancing innovation and shaping corporate strategy.

“As a visionary leader who has made seminal contributions to healthcare, Dave’s addition to Truvian marks a pivotal moment as we advance our mission to make routine health testing convenient, affordable, and actionable for today’s consumers,” Truvian Health CEO Jay Srinivasan said. “Dave’s instrumental role in scaling LabCorp into a market-leading force in clinical diagnostics underscores the deep industry knowledge and strategic insight he brings. His guidance will be a vital asset as Truvian prepares to launch our innovative multimodal blood testing platform.”

During his near 20-year tenure at LabCorp, King transformed the company into a market leader in laboratory testing and global drug development using his operational, M&A and legal experience, as well as subject-matter expertise in healthcare innovation and policy. In 2014, he led the $6 billion acquisition of contract research organization (CRO) Covance, which tripled LabCorp’s size. King also developed, brokered, and extended multiple key partnerships, including Walgreens, Providence St. Joseph Health, and Mt. Sinai Health System. In the past, he served on the board of Cardinal Health and currently is a board member at PathGroup, ZimVie, HealthChannels, Privia Health and VaxCare.

King earned his J.D. from the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School after completing his bachelor of arts degree from the School of Public & International Affairs at Princeton University.

“I deeply believe in expanding access to care, enhancing care quality, lowering costs, improving the patient experience, and driving innovation. Serving on Truvian’s advisory board is consistent with my mission to advance these critical priorities in healthcare,” King stated.

“At Truvian, we are on track to build sustainable healthcare with accessible blood testing for a healthier world,” Srinivasan concluded. “As we prepare for our next phase of growth, Dave’s experience with scaling businesses across the healthcare value chain will be key as Truvian’s technology empowers patients to better understand and own their health journeys.”
