WellPoint Inc. named Lewis Hay III to its board of directors after announcing earlier this month that three members had resigned for personal reasons. He serves as executive chairman of Juno Beach, Fla.-based NextEra Energy Inc. but will retire at the end of this year. He was CEO of that company from 2001 through last year. WellPoint, the nation's second-largest health insurer, said May 13 that three long-standing board members—Sheila P. Burke, Dr. Lenox D. Baker Jr. and Susan B. Bayh—had left the board but did not resign due to disagreements or disputes with the company.
