“The environment remained volatile this past year in our industry. While we saw fewer losses with ACA plans, these customers continued to need expensive medical services. Gains in other lines of business offset these losses,” said Blue Cross Chief Financial Officer Mitch Perry. “It’s still uncertain how changes in Washington will affect our customers in 2018. Despite these challenges, the company remains well-capitalized and financially strong.”

“Ned’s involvement in many community organizations combined with his history as a leader in business in the Charlotte-Metro area and across the state brings a unique perspective to our company,” said Blue Cross President and CEO, Brad Wilson.

“It’s been a privilege to work for a company that has been helping North Carolinians live healthier for the past 84 years,” said Wilson. “Now is a good time to transition leadership to the next CEO – one who will lead Blue Cross through the next wave of health care reform just as I have been fortunate to do for the last seven years. I will work closely with the Board of Trustees to establish a timeline that ensures a smooth transition.”

“Investing in our employees and their families, allowing them to build a bond with their new additions, not only lowers health care costs to our employees and our customers, but it’s the right thing to do,” states Fara Palumbo, senior vice president and chief human resources office for Blue Cross. “Reports show there is a connection between paid leave, employee retention and the health of parents and their children.”
