“Private health exchanges have the potential to reform the way health care is designed and delivered in the U.S., and Maureen has helped position Aon Hewitt as a market leader in this space,” said Kristi Savacool, CEO of Aon Hewitt. “She is focused on developing innovative client solutions and delivering a distinctive and consistent experience for our client organizations and their employees. We congratulate her on this incredible and well-deserved accomplishment.”
