Prior to Mount Tabor, Kleinke helped establish Health Grades Inc., a publicly traded health care information company based in Denver, which he served as Vice Chairman of the Board until 2008.

In the 1990s, Kleinke helped grow HCIA, now Solucient, from a niche hospital data analysis firm into a pioneering, publicly-traded health information products and services company. Before joining HCIA, he was Director of Corporate Programs at Sheppard Pratt Health System, the largest private psychiatric hospital in the U.S. While at Sheppard Pratt, Mr. Kleinke developed and managed the nation’s first provider-based, managed mental health care system.
