Idaho’s state health insurance exchange, YourHealthIdaho.org, is losing two of its top three staffers – Executive Director Amy Dowd is leaving to become CEO of the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange, and Alberto Gonzalez, operations project manager and a former bureau chief for the Idaho Department of Health & Welfare, is leaving for a consulting firm.

Steven Weeg, chairman of the board of the Idaho exchange, said the board will work with Dowd, Gonzalez and the rest of the staff on a transition plan; Dowd was hired in 2013, and hired Gonzalez shortly afterward, along with marketing and communications director Jody Olson. The staff also includes finance director Patrick Kelly.

“We are thankful for all Amy has done for us,” Weeg said in a statement. “When she first started, Idaho’s exchange was just an idea. With her leadership we built an exchange from the ground up and beat everyone’s expectations for the first open enrollment period. Amy has put us on the right path and we are confident YourHealthIdaho will continue to succeed in the 2015 open enrollment period and beyond.”
