Here is today’s spotlight:
Lorry Bottrill, chief operating officer, Mercy Care Plan
Best decision: “The best decision was to accept a position to serve Medicaid members with Aetna through the administration of Mercy Care Plan. I had previously worked in the industry focused on commercial members. Here, I utilize my skills with the Medicaid population and I’ve found a greater sense of purpose and inspiration. I’m working with an amazing team and truly making a difference in people’s lives.”
Surprising fact: “I’m a hockey mom to two boys ages 15 and 16 who play travel hockey all over the country. This requires a great deal of energy, organization and a whole lot of toughness!. We’re traveling to cold country – places like Detroit — where they battle it out. We love it.”
