Niblack joins Boon-Chapman as president

Employee benefits administrator Boon-Chapman has appointed veteran captive and health benefits executive Kari Niblack as its new president. 

The company said Niblack, formerly founder and president of Blackwell Captive Solutions, would bring “energy, empowerment, and foresight to the organisation with a deep commitment to driving operational excellence and client success.”  

"People are at the heart of every single thing we do, and it’s an honour to join Boon-Chapman, an institution I have long admired and respected," said Niblack. We will continue honouring the legacy of our founders with exceptional client service all while driving greater optimisation and expansion of our value chain. In short, Boon-Chapman’s stellar ability to totally customise the health care experience will reward our clients and partners by making our partnership innovative, seamless and affordable.”

In a LinkedIn post, she added: “I’m thrilled to share that I’m starting a new position as president at Boon-Chapman! I’ll be working with a stellar team and look forward to diving into this new journey headfirst. Here comes the Niblack train! Hop aboard!”

 Boon-Chapman said Niblack brings 25 years of expertise in leading and transforming multiple corporations in the self-insurance ecosystem and has a proven track record of driving hyper-growth and innovation.

“Niblack’s distinguished career leading third-party administrators and as an ERISA and employee benefits attorney makes her the ideal choice to drive Boon-Chapman’s continued innovation, growth and operational excellence,” the company said. “Her diverse executive experience across all stakeholder perspectives in healthcare ranges from claims administration and alternative risk solutions to physician practice management and revenue cycle models for insurers and providers.” 

Niblack is a former chairwoman of the board of directors at the Self-Insured Institute of America and a former two-term chairwoman of the national Health Care Committee. 

“Kari brings a wealth of knowledge and accomplishments to Boon-Chapman,” said Sanjiv Anand, CEO of Boon-Chapman. “Her background in enhancing health and wellbeing-solutions, proven expertise in driving TPA growth and client satisfaction, and experience leading a growing ecosystem of world-class cost containment solutions will be an asset as Boon-Chapman continues to build on its strong reputation for innovative solutions and operational excellence.”

Carrie Mabrito, who joined Boon-Chapman in 2009, has served as an operational leader throughout her tenure and since 2023 as President. She will continue to contribute her strategic insights to the company as she transitions to a Senior Advisor role.

Boon-Chapman is headquartered in Austin, Texas, and serves members in all 50 US states.
