About Burcu Bozkurt

I serve as Director of Small Group at CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, where I lead the business strategy, performance, and growth for employer products for businesses with fewer than 50 employees. I hold full P&L responsibility and drive membership growth, financial performance, pricing and product direction, and multi-year planning. I partner across a complex matrix of functions—marketing, sales, finance, operations, health services, and product—to deliver sustainable, high-quality coverage solutions to a vital but often underserved segment of the employer market.Focused on creating a high-impact, multi-disciplinary, and meaningful career at the intersection of health policy, strategy, and health equity.
