    DRAPER, UT, June 12, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Que Spencer Hansen has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Hansen has established himself as a respected figure in the field of health insurance and management through his role as owner of Tall Tree Administrators Inc., a position he has held since 2001. Based in Draper, Utah, Tall Tree is a third-party administrator that specializes in self-funded medical and dental plans.

Prior to his current role, Mr. Hansen owned a similar company for five years and served as a hospital administrator in Los Angeles for over two decades. His extensive experience in the health care sector has not only showcased his expertise but his commitment to improving the industry. To remain aware of developments in the field, Mr. Hansen maintains his affiliation with the Hospital Association of Southern California.

Mr. Hansen's career journey began after graduating from Brigham Young University, when he was given an opportunity to work with the Los Angeles County's department of hospitals for three years. This experience ignited his passion for hospital administration, leading him to pursue a Master of Public Health in Hospital Administration from the University of California Los Angeles. He subsequently went on to work for a Catholic hospital, where he served as an administrator for over two decades and dealt with incidental insurance matters.

At a pivotal juncture, Mr. Hansen and his team confronted a malpractice crisis that impacted both physicians and hospitals. In response, they established an offshore professional liability insurance company in Bermuda—a move that ultimately proved successful. However, this company chose not to insure California physicians, leading to the creation of yet another insurance entity in the Grand Caymans, specifically catering to physicians. Classified as a non-admitted alien carrier, this new company was empowered to offer insurance plans to patients.

During his tenure with this insurance company, Mr. Hansen played a key role in setting up a preferred provider network and a third-party administrator. However, when his hospital decided to exit the insurance business, he faced a critical decision. Opting to leave and acquire the company, he needed an insurance license. To secure one, they leased it from a Minnesota-based company for a five-year period. Unfortunately, subsequent modifications to California's licensing regulations rendered his continued operation impossible.

Undeterred, Mr. Hansen eventually sold the insurance company to another entity. Later, he embarked on a collaborative venture with his son and colleague at Vanderbilt University, proposing an exclusive provider network program. Their joint efforts spanned four years until his colleague lost the contract, prompting their return home. In 2001, Mr. Hansen founded Tall Tree Administrator, which has remained his primary focus ever since.

Beyond his professional achievements, Mr. Hansen has made significant contributions to his community through volunteer work. He dedicated four years to serving in a women's prison through his church and spent 18 months at the church's employment service center. Additionally, he has been recognized as an Outstanding Member within his community, a further testament to his positive impact.

In his personal life, Mr. Hansen is a devoted family man with four children and enjoys playing golf in his leisure time. Looking ahead, he is focused on expanding his entrepreneurial ventures.
