Richard Topping

As Chief Legal Officer, Richard Topping leads CareSource’s assurance and advocacy teams including legal, internal audit, compliance and risk, program integrity, policy, government relations, and corporate governance. He also serves as the lead executive for the organization’s veteran and military service programs.

Richard was recruited, along with the Mintz Law Firm, for his in-the-trenches experience in highly politicized, new health care delivery systems—like the entry of Medicaid managed care into a fee-for-service state, and the implementation of the MISSION Act to allow veterans better access to health care. His unique experience as an attorney and a health plan executive coupled with his Medicaid, VA and TRICARE expertise creates a unique perspective for the build out of new government healthcare programs.
