Big personnel change are coming to Humana. Longtime insurance segment president George Renaudin will retire by mid-2026, the health care company announced Tuesday. During his 29-year tenure, Renaudin, who also is a member of Humana’s Enterprise Leadership team, played a pivotal role in establishing and growing the company’s Medicare Advantage and Medicaid programs, according to Humana president and CEO Jim Rechtin.
“George has contributed greatly to Humana’s success, driving the growth of these programs, and shaping our value-based care strategy,” he said. “He has been instrumental in positioning us for long-term success, with sustained membership growth and consistent high-quality care.”
In related news, Aaron Martin will join the company in January as president of Medicare Advantage while also becoming a member of the Enterprise Leadership Team.
In the newly created role, Martin will report jointly to Renaudin and Rechtin and consolidate Humana’s Medicare Advantage operations under a single leader.
Following Renaudin’s retirement, Martin, former vice president of health care at Amazon, will assume the role of insurance segment president. At the same time, John Barger, currently president of Humana’s Medicaid and Dual Eligible programs, will be promoted to the role of president of Medicare Advantage, reporting directly to Martin. Renaudin will serve as a strategic advisor to the company through at least the end of 2026.
At Amazon, Martin oversaw strategic partnerships, marketing, and the company’s telehealth and chronic conditions programs.
“His experience in applying technology and a consumer-centric approach within the health care ecosystem will strengthen our ability to serve members and deliver better outcomes,” Rechtin said. “Aaron’s proven ability to lead health care organizations through periods of transformation will position him to provide immediate and impactful oversight of our talented and experienced insurance team. … We are confident that with these appointments, our insurance team will continue to advance our efforts to become a world-class, consumer health care company and position Humana for continued shareholder value creation.”
