Ezmeralda Sager
Chief Strategy & Transformation Officer, Acentra Health
Ezmeralda Sager’s biggest recent achievement will be seeing Acentra Health fully transform into the next phase of its journey.
“A place where each of our leaders and employees is continually pushing the status quo to ask ‘why’ and ‘why not’ as we partner with our clients to consider bold and innovative ideas to solve their most pressing challenges at speed and at a lower cost to serve,” she said.
Acentra Health is also aligning with the current administration’s priorities by integrating its solutions with government agency needs, ensuring compliance, strengthening partnerships, and advising on policy to drive smarter decision-making. By deploying scalable technologies and automating core functions like claims processing and eligibility, the company helps state and federal clients reduce administrative costs and streamline operations.
This data-driven approach, combined with deep public sector expertise, improves efficiency and outcomes for the millions of beneficiaries who rely on public programs.
“A transformation is only as strong as the team leading it,” Sager said. “I am incredibly privileged to work with an amazing team of rock stars who collaborate on a daily basis to create and drive value for Acentra Health and our clients, while supporting our leaders and employees through significant change.”
Why Watch
In 2026, Sager and her team are heavily focused on driving the company’s Vision 2030: To be the vital healthcare solutions partner for its clients. To enable that vision, Acentra Health launched a comprehensive transformation in 2025 focused on growth, innovation, optimization, talent and culture. This fundamentally reimagines Acentra Health’s products and solutions, how it works, and how it delivers to clients.
The work Acentra Health is doing is all in an effort to make it easier and less costly for individuals to access and receive quality healthcare.
“Ezmeralda is an incredible transformation leader spearheading our enterprise-wide initiatives to optimize operations, enhance efficiency, and drive measurable value for our clients,” said Todd Stottlemyer, CEO of Acentra Health. “We are grateful for her proven track record of guiding organizations through large-scale change and creating value. What I most appreciate about Ez is her high degree of fluency in all areas of our business – from AI innovation and automation to finance and operations. Her expertise is helping Acentra Health improve performance and enhance growth.”
Fun fact: Sager and her husband love travel and racing. They combine both in their passion for Formula 1. They hope to encourage their two children to also be fans so their trips can become family adventures.
