Kimberly Carleson didn’t set out to become a leader in health care reform. Life forced her into it.

When her husband was diagnosed with stage four metastatic bladder cancer, Kimberly found herself navigating a health care system built for confusion, not care. Pregnant and raising a young daughter, she refused to accept the death sentence doctors gave her husband. Her advocacy, persistence, and leadership saved his life—and revealed a deeper calling.

That experience became the foundation for U.S. Beacon, the company she founded to fight bloated medical billing and protect employers from skyrocketing health costs. Kimberly’s team reviews claims for self-funded plans, finding and eliminating ineligible charges—often cutting 20–40% from monthly claims. Her work restores fairness and trust in a system where both are in short supply.

Her leadership isn’t just professional. It’s deeply personal. Kimberly speaks with clarity, strength, and purpose—because she’s lived what most only fear.
