Virtual care company Teladoc has a new chief executive officer following the abrupt departure of its long-time leader in April.
Chuck Divita, who took on the role Monday, previously led the commercial markets business at GuideWell, the parent company of health plan Florida Blue. He was also previously chief financial officer at FPIC Insurance group, a publicly traded insurance company focused on medical liability.
Board chair David Snow said in a release that Divita’s health care experience and tenure at a public company made him an attractive candidate. Divita has also joined Teladoc’s board of directors.
