Crowe Paradis CEO Named to Business Insurance's 2012 Women to Watch List


BOSTON, December 20, 2012 - Crowe Paradis Services Corporation Chief Executive Officer Dorothy Kelly has been recognized by Business Insurance as one of 2012's Women to Watch - an exclusive group of women that have a powerful impact in the business industry. Crowe Paradis Services Corporation (CPSC) is a leading national Medicare compliance firm and a member of the Verisk Insurance Solutions group at Verisk Analytics (Nasdaq:VRSK).

Business Insurance's Women to Watch is an annual feature spotlighting 25 women who are major influences in commercial insurance, reinsurance, risk management, employee benefits and related fields, such as law and consulting. Candidates are selected by a panel of senior editors at Business Insurance who consider "various criteria, including recent professional achievements, influence on the marketplace and contributions to the advancement of women in business."

Kelly is a certified Medicare Set Aside Consultant and is an active participant in many insurance industry organizations where she shares her unique perspective on Medicare Secondary Payer compliance. She authors articles in industry publications and speaks nationally on Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) issues.  

"Insurance is a very broad industry," said Kelly. "At CPSC, we focus on healthcare and the cost of medical claims. That is also where our customers are most focused. I'm proud to be a part of an organization that helps its customers best position themselves relative to those challenges."

"Dorothy's customer focus, commitment to excellence, and clear leadership of Crowe Paradis Services Corporation have distinguished her in the Medicare compliance space and have truly made her one of the 'Women to Watch' in this sector," said Vincent Cialdella, president of Verisk Insurance Solutions - Claims and Crime Analytics. "Business Insurance's decision to include Dorothy on this list only reinforces to the market what her service to the market and drive in leading her business have demonstrated."

"I strongly encourage women and all leaders to be fully committed," said Kelly. "People are at their best when they are highly professional, entirely stimulated in their careers, and significant contributors to the community. I encourage leaders in insurance to harness those characteristics."

"I can think of no one more deserving of this award than Dorothy," added Rob Lewis, president of CPSC. "She has truly earned the recognition through hard work, perseverance, and creative thinking."
