A Message from Mark Bertolini, Aetna Foundation President Anne C. Beal, M.D., M.P.H, has accepted an offer to join the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) in Washington, D.C. as its chief operating officer. PCORI was established by Congress through the Affordable Care Act to conduct research to help patients and their health care providers make better informed decisions. While I am saddened that Anne is leaving Aetna and the Foundation, I know that her new role will provide her with significant opportunity to influence the transformation of the U.S. health care system. Since joining the Foundation as president in 2009, Anne has significantly enhanced our philanthropic efforts by refocusing our grant making to improve the health of children and adults and to make the health care system more equitable and effective. Under her leadership, the Foundation targeted giving in three key health areas – obesity, racial and ethnic health care equity, and integrated care. The Aetna Foundation will continue its commitment to promote wellness, health and access to high-quality health care for everyone. We at Aetna and the Aetna Foundation wish Anne well in her new role. A search is underway to name her successor. Sincerely,
