Governance and Accountability

We believe that strong corporate governance is foundational for creating and sustaining long-term value for our stakeholders. 

Being a leader in government-sponsored healthcare means doing things the right way, every day. We embrace a culture of accountability shaped and supported by Centene’s Board of Directors, our Code of Conduct and a comprehensive system of policies and procedures. These elements encourage our employees to be responsible stewards of our mission to transform the communities we serve, one person at a time.

Our Board of Directors remains committed to continuous improvement, taking important steps to enhance governance practices and shareholder rights and consistently demonstrating our commitment to corporate sustainability. The Board delegates oversight to the committees below to further support governance and accountability:
