Teladoc nabs insurance veteran as new CFO

Teladoc Health has appointed Grasher as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) starting immediately, replacing Mala Murthy who left the company in November after six years. Grasher brings over three decades of experience in the insurance and financial services sectors, with more than 12 years as a CFO. He most recently served as CFO of IFG Companies, a privately held property-casualty insurance company, from February 2024 to September 2025.

Before that, he held the CFO roles at Fortegra, a specialty insurer, and Amerisafe, a workers' compensation insurance provider. Grasher's extensive background in public company finance, leadership, and operational efficiency will prove beneficial as Teladoc strengthens its business and expands its insurance-covered services. The hiring is timely, coming about a month after Teladoc revised its revenue guidance downward due to BetterHelp's struggle to meet the rising demand for insurance-covered behavioral healthcare. CEO Chuck Divita sees 2026 as Teladoc's year of execution.
