Rechtin is a Kentucky native. 

Rechtin worked for Bain & Company for over a decade, and was then president of UnitedHealth Group's subsidiary Optum.

In 2023, Humana announced that Bruce D. Broussard would step down as CEO in 2024, to be replaced by Envision Healthcare president and CEO Rechtin, after which Broussard would continue in a strategic advisor role into 2025.

Through our Humana insurance services, and our CenterWell health care services, we operate as a leading integrated care delivery model centered on improving health outcomes, enhancing quality, and providing a simple and personalized member and patient experience. Our efforts focus on providing a better quality of life for people with Medicare, Medicaid, families, individuals, military service personnel, and communities at large.  

I have more than 22 years of experience and expertise in value-based care across various medical group settings, including a deep understanding of Medicare Advantage. Prior to Humana, I served as President and CEO of Envision Healthcare for four years. Before my time at Envision, I served as President of OptumCare, part of UnitedHealth Group. 

Early in my career, I ran operations for a nonprofit health and human services clinic in Indianapolis, Indiana, and served in the United States Peace Corps in the Congo directing a two-year public health project. I hold a Master of Business Administration from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor of Arts from DePauw University.
