As part of the executive leadership team, Sager will oversee the Transformation Office and collaborate with senior leaders to implement business process changes.
“Acentra Health has always been a leader in pushing the boundaries of possibility, from delivering the first Medicaid Enterprise System in the cloud to creating one of the first clinical GenAI solutions to be reviewed and approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),” said Todd Stottlemyer, Acentra Health CEO. “We have made great strides in transformation, through automation, AI, and machine learning, and Ezmeralda’s leadership will be pivotal in accelerating our capacity to deliver exceptional value and outcomes for our clients.”
Before joining Acentra Health, Sager served as vice president of global transformation at Johnson Controls, where she managed the transformation portfolio for the $27 billion company. She also held senior leadership roles at Booz Allen Hamilton and SAIC.
“Transformation is a cornerstone for organizations striving to achieve sustainable growth and continual advancement,” Sager said. “As healthcare becomes increasingly complex, the ability to innovate, streamline operations, and deliver measurable outcomes is more critical than ever. I am pleased to join Acentra Health at such a vital point in its growth journey and look forward to building on the company’s success to create lasting value for our clients and those they serve.”
