“I am privileged to have been at the helm of Rhode Island’s leading dental benefits provider during a time of unprecedented growth, financial success and strategic diversification,” stated Nagle.
“During this time, Delta Dental’s membership more than tripled, annual revenue surpassed $270 million and financial reserves increased more than seven fold to $137 million,” Nagle added. “However, I am most proud of our commitment to philanthropy, having contributed more than $10 million to various charities over the last decade alone, as proof that Delta Dental is part of the fabric of our community.”
John T. Ruggieri, chair of the Delta Dental of Rhode Island board of directors, said Monday, “We are fortunate to have someone of Joe Perroni’s talents, experience and a proven track record of delivering results who will continue to lead this great company, execute on our strategic goals and initiatives, and fulfill our mission to improve the oral health of all Rhode Islanders for years to come.”
