Kelly Loeffler, executive vice president and chief growth officer at Acentra Health, has won WashingtonExec’s 2024 Chief Officer Award for Chief Growth Officer in the Private and Public Company (annual revenue greater than $100 million and less than $500 million) category.
WashingtonExec on May 10 unveiled the winners of the Chief Officer Awards, an annual program that celebrates influential and innovative executives in government and industry in the C-suite. The event took place at The Hilton in McLean, Virginia, where hundreds of attendees came together for a memorable in-person luncheon.
Along with the government and industry winners, Richard Montoni, a director on Maximus board of directors who was the company’s CEO from 2006-2018, was honored with the 2024 Chief Officer Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. This award recognizes the career of a longtime, influential, impactful CEO who continues to share his perspective and expertise within and outside the GovCon industry. Montoni was introduced and honored by his successor, current Maximus CEO Bruce Caswell.
Loeffler noted in her finalist Q+A with WashingtonExec that 2023 was a “whirlwind year” involving a rebrand and bringing together two companies of equal size.
“We will continue to focus on providing mission-critical administrative systems and clinical services that will aid our clients in accelerating better outcomes for the populations they serve (Medicaid beneficiaries, Medicare beneficiaries, veterans),” she said. “In addition, we are focused on utilizing data to drive further improvements to health-related social needs, behavioral health and data interoperability.”
