 BeWellnm Board of Directors today announced its decision to appoint
Cheryl Smith Gardner as the new beWellnm CEO. Smith Gardner is currently the executive
director of the Arkansas Health Insurance Marketplace (AHIM). She brings with her more than 10
years of extensive knowledge of health insurance policy and health care reform efforts.

Prior to her time at AHIM, Smith Gardner served as director of policy and strategy for the Utah
Health Exchange during its initial launch as one of only two existing health insurance  exchanges
in the country in 2009. Utah’s Health Exchange model later served as a basis for other health
exchanges throughout the country. Her previous experience includes senior positions with top health
practice consulting firms and roles leading health care reform research, creation, implementation
and operation.

“The board and I are confident that Ms. Smith Gardner has the experience and knowledge to
successfully lead beWellnm through the rest of 2017 and into the future,” said beWellnm Board Chair
Dr. J. R. Damron. “In the time Linda Wedeen has served as interim CEO for beWellnm, the exchange
has seen steady year-over-year growth and the Board is grateful for her hard work and dedication to
New Mexico residents.”
