Paige Rothermel Named Chief Growth Officer for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona

"I'm energized by this new role," Rothermel says. "Arizona has so much potential with its growing economy and business climate. Add Blue Cross' stellar reputation in the community, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity. I'm looking forward to creating products and services that will help Arizonans achieve their optimal health."

Rothermel joins BCBSAZ from Anthem Inc., where she served for more than 30 years. In her most recent role as vice president and general manager, she was responsible for directing the California Large Group sales, underwriting, and account management functions.

"We are in a position to expand upon the foundation that has allowed us to serve millions of Arizonans through the years," she says.
