Regence BlueShield welcomes Kirsten Stack as senior business development executive for the large group market. In her new role, Stack will manage new business opportunities in the 100-plus segment, fully insured and self-funded employers with 100 to 2,500 employees.

Stack brings to Regence two decades of experience in the Washington health care industry, with both carriers and brokers, including her most recent role managing local key accounts sales for a national health plan. Her deep understanding of employer benefits and longtime client relationships has led to proven results.

“Kirsten is an incredible leader who sees through the complexity of our health care system to deliver solutions that make a difference for Washington employers and employees,” said Claire Verity, president of Regence BlueShield. “She approaches opportunities with a foundation of trust, relationships and problem solving."

“Regence helps large employers find innovative ways to meet their complex health care needs, and I’m so happy to be part of this dynamic team,” Stack said.

Stack arrived in Seattle 20 years ago from her native Chicago, spends her free time with friends and family, and faithfully cheers on the Chicago Bears and Chicago Blackhawks.
