Sarah London
CEO, Centene
Centene serves nearly 1 in 15 individuals across the nation, including Medicaid, Medicare and TRICARE members and those covered through the health insurance exchanges. In 2023, under London’s leadership, its marketplace line of business, Ambetter Health, expanded into Alabama and its Wellcare unit expanded Medicare Advantage and Medicare prescription drug plan offerings to 209 new U.S. counties. To refocus on its core business, Centene this year sold Magellan Specialty Health and Apixio, an AI company. London, who was promoted to CEO in 2022, is working with the Centene Foundation and Centene’s Texas plan, Superior HealthPlan, to support the town of Uvalde. A few months after the 2022 elementary school shooting there, Centene announced it would invest $7.9 million toward building a new multipurpose community center that will provide access to primary care, behavioral health and youth resources.
