Throughout his career, McCann has held sales and leadership roles with major health insurance providers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield of Ohio, Anthem BC, Humana, United Healthcare and Physicians Health Plan of Northern Indiana Inc., also known as PHP. Most recently, he served as director of sales at PHP, where he led top-performing teams, launched targeted broker training initiatives and played a key role in growing membership and improving retention among large employer groups, according to Parkview Health.

Since joining Parkview Employer Solutions earlier this spring, McCann and his team have focused on cultivating relationships with insurance brokers, consultants and third-party administrators across Indiana and Ohio.

“Jim’s ability to bridge the gap between employer needs and meaningful health outcomes makes him a valuable addition to our team,” said Dr. Jason Row, chief value transformation officer of Parkview Health. “His deep understanding of the insurance landscape, combined with our clinical insight, allows us to deliver more effective care strategies for our employer partners.”

“As Employer Solutions continues to grow, Jim’s leadership will be key to strengthening our relationships with brokers and employer groups, and expanding access to innovative, value-driven care options across Parkview’s service area,” added David Jeans, senior vice president of payer, employer and health plan strategies.

McCann has an enthusiasm for tackling the complexities of health care and insurance. “Call me crazy, but I enjoy the challenge,” he said. “I love strategizing with brokers and clients to design benefits that truly fit their needs, finding the right service, with the right provider, and at the right price. That balance is the big challenge. However, the reward is delivering better outcomes for healthier employees.”

Outside of work, McCann maintains a wide range of interests and hobbies. He’s an avid pickleball player, a classic and muscle car enthusiast, and enjoys do-it-yourself home remodeling projects. He also has a passion for the arts, particularly theater and ballroom dance.
