An Interview with Fiona Wilmot, MD, MPH, Medical Director of Policy, Pharmacy & Therapeutics, Blue Shield of California.

Board certified in internal medicine and with a Master’s degree in public health, Fiona Wilmot’s passion has long been "the delivery of the best care for the patient at the right time in the right setting," she says. Toward that end, Dr. Wilmot works with physicians and pharmacists to develop medical policies related to new technologies and therapeutics for Blue Shield of California (BSC). She also manages the Transplant Center of Excellence Program with a team of specialized nurse case managers. We spoke with her recently about seeking insurance coverage for treating rare cancers.
