Directors has elected Jason Gorevic as a Director, effective
February 2. The Board also announced that David P. Storch has
informed the Board of his intention to retire as a director at the
end of his current term, expiring May 4, 2022.
As Chief Executive Officer of Teladoc Health, the global leader
in whole-person virtual care, and a member of Teladoc’s Board of
Directors, Gorevic has delivered exponential growth in revenue,
membership and care visits over his twelve-year tenure. He has over
25 years of experience in the healthcare industry and in 2021 was
named one of the most influential people in healthcare by Modern
Healthcare magazine. He has served in senior leadership roles at
Wellpoint, Inc. (now Anthem, Inc.), including Chief Marketing &
Product Officer and President of Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield.
Gorevic has a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Relations
from the University of Pennsylvania.
“We’re pleased to welcome Jason to our board,” said Joseph P.
Lacher, Jr., President, CEO and Chairman of Kemper’s Board of
Directors. “Jason’s deep expertise in market shaping and
penetration, strategic execution and driving transformation, as
well as strong knowledge/capabilities in a regulated industry, make
him an excellent addition to Kemper’s board. We look forward to
learning from his experiences and welcome his guidance as we
continue to move the needle on the Kemper story.”
Gorevic will be a member of the board’s Risk and Human Resources
and Compensation Committees. His appointment expands the board to
12 directors, 10 of whom are independent.
“I’m excited to join the board of this respected company with
such a long track record of achievement,” said Gorevic. “The talent
and focus of the board members and leadership team is a core
strength and I look forward to supporting the company’s commitment
to its Strategic Intent.”
Storch was elected to Kemper’s Board in May 2010, and has served
as Lead Director and on numerous Board committees. He retired as
Chief Executive Officer of AAR Corp., a leading provider of
aviation services for commercial and government customers, where he
currently holds the position of Non-Executive Chairman of the
Board.
“Kemper has been very fortunate to have David’s leadership on
our Board for the last dozen years, and we thank him for his
dedicated service and outstanding contributions,” said Lacher.
“David’s leadership, integrity and dedication to high personal and
professional standards has been evident throughout his tenure, and
we’re grateful for the leadership he provided while we worked to
transform the company and enable a path to sustained growth. He’s
been a highly effective director and we extend our gratitude and
best wishes to David and his family.”
“After serving for 12 years, I leave the board very confident in
the leadership team, the slate of directors, and the strategic
direction of the company,” said Storch. “I’m proud to have been
part of a successful transformation, and wish the team all the best
as they move forward.”
