EO Care Appoints William Fleming and Kristi Savacool to Board of Directors, Reinforcing Its Leadership in Clinically Guided Cannabinoid Symptom Management

Former Humana and Aon Hewitt executives join as directors and investors amid accelerating clinical validation, reimbursement expansion, and national growth.

Boston, MA – March 11, 2026 –

EO Care, Inc., a leading provider of clinically guided cannabinoid-based symptom management, today announced the appointment of William Fleming, PharmD, and Kristi Savacool to its Board of Directors. Both join as directors and investors, further strengthening the company’s governance, strategic depth, and national influence as cannabinoid care advances into mainstream healthcare delivery.

The appointments reflect EO Care’s leadership at a defining moment for the industry—marked by accelerating clinical validation, expanding reimbursement pathways, and growing demand from providers and health plans seeking accountable alternatives for complex symptom management.

With the addition of Dr. Fleming and Ms. Savacool, EO Care’s Board of Directors and advisory leadership now include former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Regina Benjamin and Dr. Jacob Strand, Enterprise Chair of the Center for Palliative Medicine at Mayo Clinic—forming a formidable group of nationally recognized healthcare executives and clinicians. Collectively, this leadership represents rare depth across federal health policy, value-based care, complex clinical delivery, and enterprise healthcare transformation, underscoring EO Care’s standing as a category-defining leader in clinically guided cannabinoid-based symptom management.

“EO Care has clearly established itself as a clinical and operational leader in cannabinoid-based symptom management,” said Sean Collins, CEO and Co-Founder of EO Care. “As the category matures, healthcare stakeholders are looking for rigor, accountability, measurable outcomes, and scalable delivery models. William and Kristi bring the enterprise experience and strategic insight to help us lead this next phase of integration across payer, provider, and government ecosystems.”

Industry-Leading Governance and Healthcare Expertise

Dr. Fleming brings more than three decades of senior leadership at Humana, including serving as President of Healthcare Services, where he led clinical and pharmacy operations serving 12.5 million members across integrated care platforms. His expertise in value-based care, pharmacy integration, and population health aligns directly with EO Care’s evidence-driven model and its engagement with Medicare and commercial reimbursement frameworks.

Ms. Savacool previously served as CEO of Aon Hewitt, leading a global organization serving more than 20,000 clients and approximately 30 million plan participants. She also served as CEO of Private Health Management, focused on complex and oncology care navigation. Her experience scaling enterprise healthcare platforms and aligning employer, payer, and clinical stakeholders strengthens EO Care’s position as a trusted partner for responsible cannabinoid integration.

Ms. Savacool currently serves on the Boards of Directors of TrueBlue and RxBenefits and is a member of HealthQuest Capital’s Industry Advisory Board. She most recently served on the boards of Ascension Health System and Private Health Management.

Demonstrated Clinical Impact and Market Momentum

  • Launch of the next generation of its scalable digital health platform, expanding personalized, clinically responsible cannabinoid guidance for older adults, individuals undergoing cancer treatment, and cancer survivors nationwide.
  • Publication of outcomes data demonstrating meaningful symptom improvement using broadly accepted PROMIS and Personally Important Outcome (PIO) measures.
  • Demonstrated reductions in total healthcare costs associated with symptom management, including reduced emergency department utilization and decreased prescribing of opioids, benzodiazepines, and other high-risk medications.

  • Sustained 30% month-over-month growth into 2026, driven by strong patient demand and satisfaction, reflected in Net Promoter Scores of 58 among older adults and 91 among cancer patients managing pain, sleep, stress, and appetite challenges.

Leading the Next Phase of Integration

With policy frameworks evolving and clinical evidence expanding, EO Care continues to engage healthcare trade organizations, provider associations, employer coalitions, and policymakers to advance thoughtful, evidence-based integration of cannabinoid care within established delivery systems.

“Emerging treatment categories require disciplined governance and measurable performance standards,” said Dr. Fleming. “EO Care has built the infrastructure and clinical framework necessary to lead responsibly at scale.”

“The future of symptom management demands innovation anchored in accountability,” said Ms. Savacool. “EO Care is well positioned to help define and advance this category as it becomes more fully integrated into mainstream healthcare.”
