Geisinger has named Jeremy Gaskill as the new president of the Geisinger Health Plan.
Gaskill is also executive vice president of insurance operations for Geisinger, effective Feb. 23.
Gaskill joins Geisinger after more than two decades with Humana, where he most recently served as the national insurance carrier's central region president for Medicare, overseeing a nine-state region based in Kansas City, Kansas.
Gaskill takes over the position of Geisinger Health Plan (GHP) president from Karen Murphy, who stepped into the job in March 2025 and is transitioning out of the role.
"I want to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to Karen for her leadership in stabilizing GHP and reducing operating losses over the past year," said Dr. Terry Gilliland, Geisinger's president and CEO. "Jeremy and Karen will work closely together to ensure a seamless leadership transition for the health plan."
With Humana, Gaskill oversaw the growth of the organization's network of providers and also managed commercial and government business lines, including Medicare and Medicaid.
"This is a transformational time for healthcare in this country, particularly for payers as we prepare for major impacts from the pending changes to government-funded programs," Gaskill said by statement. "I believe GHP is poised to build on its legacy of providing comprehensive health insurance coverage for Pennsylvanians by offering innovative approaches for its members in the years to come. I'm thrilled to join the team in leading those efforts."
"Throughout his career, Jeremy has demonstrated the ability to turn around challenged markets, lead large-scale organizational transformation and deliver sustained performance," Gilliland said.
Geisinger serves 1.2 million people in urban and rural communities across central and northeastern Pennsylvania. Geisinger Health Plan has more than half a million members in commercial and government plans.
In 2024, Geisinger joined Risant Health, a nonprofit charitable organization created to expand and accelerate value-based care across the country.
