Tracy Hassett appointed next board chair of the VCIA

The Vermont Captive Insurance Association (VCIA) has appointed Tracy Hassett, president and CEO of edHEALTH, as its next board chair. Hassett will serve an annual term as board chair, and Jason Palmer of WTW will serve as vice president. Hassett presided over her first VCIA board meeting as VCIA board chair this month, succeeding Andrew Baillie of The AES Corporation. Hassett has been a member of the VCIA board since 2019. VCIA’s next quarterly board meeting will occur around its Montpelier Legislative Day in January 2023. Hassett has served as president and CEO of edHEALTH since 2015. edHEALTH is a thought leader in health insurance solutions for educational institutions. Hassett has also served as an adjunct instructor at Lasell College, Massachusetts (MA) and as vice president of human resources at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, also in MA. Commenting on her new appointment, Hassett says: “It is an honour to represent the VCIA in this new capacity. Our association is strong and smart. My approach is simple and clear: think big, even blue sky big, and collaborate. By engaging with all captive stakeholders, to include staff and board members alike, and having open minds, we will uncover new ways to offer even greater value to all in the captive space.” Baillie comments: “I am delighted to pass over the chair position of the VCIA board to Tracy. Under Tracy’s board leadership, we look forward to the next phase of development for VCIA as it examines how to maintain and continue to grow value services for the members and the surrounding industry stakeholders.”
