Jack Lewin: founding chair of the EP3 Foundation, and the path to Bertolini — now leading Hawaii

Person

Who this is

Jack Lewin is the founding chair of the EP3 Foundation and one of the record's great connectors: it was through Lewin that Jonathan Hare reached Mark Bertolini for the air-cover that unlocked the Aetna funding, and it is Lewin who leads the Hawaii statewide health transformation initiative — supported by Governor Josh Green, the legislature, and a ten-year CMS AHEAD grant with $120 million in funding — that the corpus's Lōkahi work serves. His page is overdue relative to his weight in the record, and says so; the fuller account is filed as an ask.

S-100 preserves a pitch post-mortem with a structural moral: pitching Marc Benioff on the Lōkahi initiative, Lewin led with 'automated prior authorization' rather than the architecture, and Benioff politely handed him to the philanthropy team — whereupon the graph's redundancy did its job, with routes through Clarence So and Greg Schott held in reserve. The record's lesson, stated on the So page: connectors need not pitch the physics; the record itself does the explaining.

S-101 grounds the Benioff channel: Lewin and Hare had both known Marc Benioff since his Oracle days; Benioff lives on the Big Island and has given over $100 million to Hawaii's hospitals, and with Lewin running the Lōkahi transformation program the channel was wide open — which is what made the prior-authorization framing of the pitch, rather than the relationship, the point of failure.

A session in the Zoom transcript ledger includes this participant (S-131, June 3, 2026, where the transcription engine rendered his name 'Jack Luhn'; Hare confirmed the identification, S-178) — primary-source conversation in Hare’s voice, published under the consent and staging ruling of S-129, with the verbatim record arriving as the archive ingests.
