Industry veteran joined Humana in early 2020 to
lead Commercial Market Operations
Leading health and well-being company Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM)
announced today that it is promoting health care industry veteran
Sue Schick to President of the company’s Group, Military and
Specialty businesses, effective September 1, 2021. Schick came to
Humana at the beginning of 2020 to join the segment’s leadership
team, with oversight of employer group sales and market
operations.
“From the day Sue arrived at Humana, the Management Team and I
have been impressed by her leadership in the segment, from her work
to restructure our market operations to her inclusive management
style,” said Bruce D. Broussard, Humana’s President and CEO. “We
have ambitious growth goals in place for our Group, Military and
Specialty businesses team, and I am highly confident that Sue is
the right person to help us achieve those goals.”
Schick succeeds Chris Hunter who has decided to leave the
company at the end of the year to pursue other opportunities.
Hunter, who joined Humana in 2014 as Chief Strategy Officer, played
an instrumental role in advancing the company’s strategy,
particularly as the company emerged as a stand-alone entity after
the termination of the Aetna transaction. In 2018, he took over
leadership responsibility for the company’s Group, Specialty and
Military lines of business.
“As a member of our Management Team, Chris has contributed
greatly to Humana’s success,” Broussard added. “His impact will be
long-lasting, from the critical strategy development work he led,
to his insights and actions on the corporate development front, to
his thoughtful work to help position our Commercial business for
long-term success.”
As Schick moves into the Segment President role, she is excited
about the opportunities across the segment – from the commercial
space to Humana’s longtime work with the federal TRICARE military
health program.
“Working with Chris and the leaders of our segment, I am proud
of everything we have accomplished to build such a talented team in
the Group, Military and Specialty businesses, and to position the
team for success. We are in the final stages of a restructuring of
the organization, and we’re excited about the progress we are
making,” Schick said. “What I am most excited about as I prepare to
take on this new role is the opportunity to help the people we
serve achieve better health. From our employer and specialty
customers and members to the U.S. Department of Defense, we’re
proud to serve millions of Americans in this segment, and looking
forward to the opportunities ahead of us.”
Before she joined Humana, Schick spent 16 years in a range of
senior-level leadership roles at United Healthcare in its Medicaid
and Commercial businesses. In all, Schick has more than 30 years of
experience in the industry – across sales, employee benefits,
regional management, strategy and growth.
Schick, who received her Master’s degree in Healthcare Delivery
Science from Dartmouth College, is also a committed volunteer,
serving as the Board Chair of Randolph-Macon College, on the
national March of Dimes board, and previously as Chair of the
Pennsylvania Commission for Women. In 2017, she was named a “Woman
to Watch” by Modern Healthcare.
Humana’s Group, Military and Specialty business currently has
1.2 million employer group members, 12 million Commercial and
Medicare Specialty members, and also partners with the Department
of Defense and the Defense Health Agency to administer the TRICARE
health program for six million U.S. Military active duty, retirees
and family member beneficiaries in the East Region.
