Empowering Employers Since 1996
Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Summit has managed employee benefits and risk programs since 1996. We work with small to medium-sized employer groups (50 to 2,500 employees), providing the hands-on administration that large insurance carriers often overlook.
The Summit Difference
In an industry known for hidden fees, Summit operates as a strictly independent, fee-only Third-Party Administrator. We take zero commissions or kickbacks from vendors. Our goal is simple: to administer a transparent, cost-effective plan that protects your bottom line and your people.
Who We Serve
We provide benefits administration and risk management to clients across multiple sectors, including:
- Private and public sector employers
- Employee Benefit Trusts
- School districts
- Native American Tribal organizations (including specialized expertise in sovereign Tribal law and risk programs)
