BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee has named Becky Owen as director of pharmacy operations.

In this role, Ms. Owen will collaborate with leaders across the company to ensure operational functions meet the needs of its members, employer customers and providers. She will lead the teams that oversee the company’s pharmacy operations and vendor contracts, including those for its pharmacy benefit management services. Ms. Owen will also guide oversight and monitoring activities, making certain that pharmacy programs meet federal and state regulatory requirements and that vendors comply with accreditation standards.

“Becky’s breadth of knowledge and years of experience make her well-equipped to lead our pharmacy teams as they serve our members,” said Dr. Natalie Tate, vice president of pharmacy management for BlueCross. “We’re pleased to have someone with her track record of success in this role.”
