BLOOMFIELD, Conn., March 16, 2026 – Evernorth, the health services division of The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI), today announced that Pete Perron has been named President of CuraScript SD, Evernorth’s specialty distribution business. CuraScript SD is dedicated to offering comprehensive distribution solutions for healthcare providers in physicians’ offices, surgery centers, and other clinical settings, ensuring reliable and efficient access to specialty medications for their patients.
As demand for specialty medicines continues to grow rapidly, CuraScript SD’s deep distribution expertise, broad drug access, and high-touch service model plays an important role in enabling clinicians to focus on delivering top-notch patient care.
“Specialty medications offer tremendous promise to individuals living with complex conditions. At the same time, they are becoming increasingly more complex to handle and administer,” said Perron. “At CuraScript SD, we’re focused every day on ensuring clinicians have seamless and efficient access to these critical medications. I am excited to build on our strong legacy of success and to further support clinicians and patients across the country.”
“Evernorth’s businesses bring together a strong and diverse set of capabilities, many of which support hospitals, health systems, and providers in delivering care to patients with complex, specialty needs. CuraScript SD plays a critical role in deepening our partnerships with health care providers, and Pete’s extensive expertise will help grow and enhance our distribution capabilities,” said Matt Perlberg, President, Pharmacy and Care Delivery at Evernorth. “I look forward to working closely with him as we enter our next chapter of growth.”

Most recently, he served as President of International and Proprietary Brands at Covetrus, a global company that distributes pharmaceuticals and medical supplies and offers technology solutions to veterinary practices. Before then, he spent 15 years at McKesson, leading the organization’s suite of tools and services designed to help community-based specialty care providers enhance their business practices and operate more efficiently.
