Independent Living Systems Strengthens Care Management Leadership with Key Executive Promotions
Miami, FL. (August 2026) — Independent Living Systems (ILS) today announced several leadership promotions to its health plan care management team, led by the appointment of Tatiana Pita as Senior Vice President of Care Management.
Amanda Chin and Nancy Hernandez have each been promoted to Vice President of Care Management, while Maria Devisme has been promoted to Senior Director of Care Coordination for the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Comprehensive Managed Care (ICMC) program.
The leadership appointments reflect ILS’ continued growth and its ongoing investment in the people who coordinate care for tens of thousands of Medicare and Medicaid members served through Florida Community Care (FCC) and Florida Complete Care (FC2).
Earlier this year, ILS celebrated its #500CMStrong milestone, recognizing more than 500 care managers across Florida. As the organization’s largest department, Care Management serves as the foundation of its person-centered model, helping members navigate complex healthcare systems, access essential services, and remain healthy and independent in their homes and communities.
“Care Management is at the heart of everything we do,” said Nestor Plana, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Independent Living Systems. “As our organization continues to grow, it’s essential that we continue investing in the leaders who support our care managers every day.
Tatiana, Amanda, Nancy, and Maria have demonstrated exceptional leadership, a deep commitment to our mission, and an unwavering focus on delivering compassionate, person-centered care. These promotions position us to continue expanding our impact while ensuring our members receive the highest level of support.”
Care managers serve as trusted advocates for members, coordinating medical, behavioral, and social services while building lasting relationships with individuals, families, providers, and community organizations. Their work helps remove barriers to care, improve health outcomes, and enhance quality of life for some of Florida’s most vulnerable populations.
“Reaching more than 500 care managers was an important milestone, but our success depends just as much on the leaders who coach, mentor, and support those teams,” said Abby Riddle, President of Florida Community Care and Florida Complete Care. “Tatiana has been an outstanding leader, and together with Amanda, Nancy, and Maria, this leadership team will continue strengthening our care management capabilities while ensuring our members remain at the center of everything we do.”
The promotions also support the continued expansion of ILS’ managed care programs, including services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities through the ICMC program.
