TrueCare Appoints Key Executives to Lead Operations and Compliance

New COO and CCO bring strategic leadership to improve health outcomes in Mississippi

June 23, 2025 (MADISON, Miss.) – TrueCare, a nonprofit, provider-sponsored health plan, has announced the appointment of two new executives to its leadership team. Thomas “Kyle” Godfrey has been named chief operating officer, and Amanda Rogers has joined as chief compliance officer.

Together, they bring decades of expertise in managed care operations, regulatory compliance and Medicaid program delivery — expertise that will be vital as TrueCare advances its mission to improve health outcomes for Mississippi’s most at-risk populations — from individuals with complex needs to mothers, infants, and children.

“The addition of Kyle and Amanda brings exceptional operational and regulatory expertise to our team at a critical moment,” said Ashley Thompson, CEO of TrueCare. “Their leadership will help ensure we deliver on our commitment to high-quality, patient-centered care for Medicaid and CHIP members across Mississippi. We are building a team that understands the complex needs of our communities and is deeply committed to creating meaningful, measurable improvements in health outcomes.”

Godfrey brings more than 20 years of experience in health care delivery, regulatory policy and managed care operations. As chief operating officer, he leads day-to-day operations with a focus on performance, provider collaboration and strategic execution. His career spans executive roles across provider organizations, academic health systems and health plans.

He most recently served as chief operating officer for AmeriHealth Caritas of Louisiana, overseeing Medicaid plan operations. Previously, he was COO and vice president of network operations for Molina Healthcare of Mississippi, where he led provider network development and worked closely with the Mississippi Division of Medicaid to support MSCAN and CHIP program delivery. Godfrey also served as chief administrative officer and general counsel for a multi-state interventional spine surgery practice and as chief network officer for the Tulane University Medical Group. Earlier in his career, he contributed to health policy efforts at the Louisiana Department of Insurance.

Godfrey has led operations for national insurers including UnitedHealthcare, WellCare, AmeriHealth Caritas and Molina. His deep understanding of Mississippi’s Medicaid landscape positions him to strengthen TrueCare’s partnerships with members, providers and state agencies. He holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a Juris Doctor, both from Louisiana State University.

Amanda Rogers has been appointed chief compliance officer at TrueCare Mississippi, bringing over 15 years of experience in regulatory compliance, vendor management, and oversight of Medicaid and Medicare Advantage programs. She leads TrueCare’s compliance strategy and regulatory oversight, playing a key role in ensuring operational integrity and maintaining strong relationships with state partners.

Rogers most recently served as Mississippi compliance director for TrueCare, where she supported TrueCare’s readiness review and market launch efforts. During her time at AmeriHealth Caritas, Rogers founded the vendor governance program for Medicare plans to improve oversight and ensure adherence with federal and state guidelines and developed and led the implementation efforts of the Inflation Reduction Act Medicare Prescription Payment Plan that went into effect for all Medicare beneficiaries in 2025. Previously, Rogers held leadership roles in vendor oversight and compliance within the Mississippi Medicaid program for UnitedHealthcare, and Molina Healthcare. Throughout her career, she has led enterprise initiatives, managed large teams, and built a strong reputation for strategic and regulatory leadership.

Rogers began her career in occupational therapy and successfully operated a multi-location therapy practice in central Mississippi. Her clinical background informs her commitment to strengthening collaboration between providers and payers to improve member care. She holds a bachelor’s degree in exercise science and a master’s degree in health services administration, both from Mississippi College.

The Mississippi Division of Medicaid recently selected TrueCare to offer coverage statewide beginning in July 2025. TrueCare earned the highest score in the state’s competitive selection process, reflecting its commitment to improving health outcomes while effectively managing costs.
