Modivcare Announces Restructure of Executive Leadership Team

DENVER, Colorado—Modivcare Inc., a health care services company that provides supportive care solutions to address social determinants of health, announced the planned departures of two members of its executive leadership team as the company continues to align its structure with its evolving business model and modernization strategy.

Chief Financial Officer Barb Gutierrez and Chief Information Officer Jessica Kral will be departing the company following a period of transition. Gutierrez’s and Kral’s departures come as Modivcare moves to evolve its organizational structure in an effort to support the next phase of its modernization strategy—built on the financial and technology foundations they (Gutierrez and Kral) helped establish during their time with the company.

“We are grateful to Barb and Jessica for their leadership, dedication and contributions to Modivcare,” said Heath Sampson, CEO of Modivcare. “Barb played a critical role in strengthening our financial strategy and capital structure amidst ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, while Jessica’s leadership has been instrumental in the continuing modernization of the technology infrastructure that serves as the backbone of our operations. Both Barb and Jessica leave behind strong teams, and we believe their efforts will have a lasting impact on the company.”

As Modivcare strives to advance its cost reduction and technology-driven integration efforts, the company has determined that it will not be replacing the CFO or CIO roles at this time. The company said it is confident that the experienced and capable teams already in place under both functions are well-positioned to support the next phase of Modivcare’s growth and modernization strategy.

“These decisions are part of a broader, structural shift in how we operate,” said Sampson. “We are working to flatten the organization and unlock greater speed and accountability as we embed automation, intelligent systems and financial discipline across the business. We thank Barb and Jessica for their service and wish them continued success in their future endeavors.”
