Wendy Arnone

Wendy is honored to join the CMTA Board to help drive funding for research aimed at treatments and a cure for CMT. Wendy’s CMT journey began when she was diagnosed over 30 years ago when there was little to no research focused on CMT. She would like to help find a cure in her lifetime and share her experience living with CMT to help those in need of support.

Wendy retired after spending 35 years in health care. Most recently, she was the West Region CEO for UnitedHealthcare Employer and Individual markets. She also served in leadership roles at Excellus BlueCross BlueShield, HealthNow NY and Aetna.

Wendy served on the Board of Directors for Covenant Physician Partners, Wisconsin Health Insurance Risk Sharing Plan, Boys & Girls Club of Green Bay, WI, and Junior Achievement of CNY. She also served as West Region Chair of the United Healthcare Children’s Foundation and Co-Chair of the Wisconsin Health and Life Insurance Advisory Council.

Wendy holds a Masters in Health Care Delivery Science from Dartmouth College, an MBA from LeMoyne College and a BS in Nursing from State University of New York at Buffalo.
