Becker's Healthcare September 19, 2025
Blue Shield of California’s new CEO, Mike Stuart, brings a finance background to the chief executive role, not only as a payer, but as the former CFO of a safety-net health system.
“Working in multiple parts of the health industry has helped me develop a better systems approach, understanding the different components, both from a delivery system perspective and the health plan side of things,” Mr. Stuart told Becker’s. “They’re all interrelated. I believe I’ve benefited from having a pretty deep and thorough understanding of how each of those components works and how they work together. It’s critically important now when you’re trying to solve a great challenge like affordability. It requires all the pieces working together in concert.”
