Healthcare is your second or third largest expense — yet most employers manage it reactively. I help C-suite executives and HR leaders build plans that reduce costs, protect employees, and put you back in control.
Employer healthcare does not have to be confusing, reactive, or uncontrollable. Most employers experience healthcare as something that happens to them. Costs rise, employees get frustrated, and each year becomes a new attempt to manage the increase.
The problem is not effort. The problem is approach.
Traditional carriers, brokers, and vendors make more money when your costs go up. The incentive structure works against you.
Most employers have no access to their own claims data. You cannot manage what you cannot see — and the industry prefers it that way.
Pushing costs to employees through higher deductibles feels like savings — until it destroys morale, retention, and productivity.
Healthcare is one of the largest expenses on the balance sheet and one of the most emotional benefits for employees. Yet it is rarely managed with the same level of strategy, visibility, or intention as other major business decisions.
We start with a deep analysis of your current claims data, cost drivers, and plan structure — finding the waste most employers never see.
We design a custom health plan aligned with your financial and people goals. Not the cheapest renewal — the right structure for your workforce.
Real-time data access means you know what is happening with your plan throughout the year — not just at renewal when it is too late.
"Healthcare works best when it is treated as both a financial strategy and a people strategy. When those two align, cost control and employee confidence follow."
Every employer health plan I design is built around a set of concrete goals — not just cost savings, but sustainable, strategic improvements to how your organization thinks about healthcare.
Lower the actual cost of healthcare received — not just shift it around — and convert a significant portion of this operating expense into earnings.
Partner with Centers of Excellence to achieve the best outcomes in health and price. Top-rated hospitals deliver better care at lower cost.
Access to real-time claims data means you know what is happening in your plan throughout the year — not what went on after it is too late to act.
When employees access top-tier providers, your risk profile improves. Better care, better outcomes, fewer catastrophic claims.
Only work with vendors whose financial incentives are aligned to drive costs down — not the traditional model where everyone profits from your increase.
Support employees with the clarity and education they need to be better consumers of care — reducing unnecessary spending for everyone.

A look at the structural reasons most employer health plan renewals climb each year, and what employers can do to break the cycle with proactive, data-driven plan management.
Most carriers, brokers, and vendors make more money when your costs go up. Skyler Cleveland on how to choose partners whose incentives are actually aligned with reducing your healthcare spend.
A few words from Utah employers who decided to manage healthcare as a strategic business decision.
“Tyson and his team rebuilt our group health plan around real claims data instead of guesswork. We cut our renewal trend from 14% to 3% and our employees actually understand and use their benefits now. He treats our healthcare like a real line item on the P&L.”
“We were stuck in the cycle of accepting whatever the carrier offered each year. Tyson gave us a strategy. The first year alone, our pharmacy spend dropped 32% with no reduction in coverage quality. He shows up year-round, not just at renewal.”
“What sets Tyson apart is alignment. His incentives are tied to our outcomes, not the carrier's commission. He brought our plan into the boardroom and made healthcare strategy as clear as any other major business decision.”
Raised in a large family deeply rooted in the insurance business, Tyson Parker naturally gravitated toward the family firm — JG Parker Insurance Associates. Now based in Draper, Utah, he serves employers across the Wasatch Front with something most advisors never develop: a genuine commitment to the people across the table.
Since 2010, Tyson has served C-suite executives and HR leaders as an employee benefits consultant, developing custom approaches that reduce and control healthcare costs while enhancing the access and quality of care available to employees. His work sits at the intersection of financial strategy and people strategy — because both matter, and the best outcomes happen when they are aligned.
His values of respect and honesty show up in every client relationship. He is not interested in renewing the same plan with a marginally better rate. He is interested in changing the trajectory of how your company manages one of its most significant expenses.
"My role is to help employers move from reacting to healthcare to managing it — building strategies that work not just this year, but over time."
