About Jason Wheeler
Jason Wheeler, Vice President of Sales and Account Management at CorVel, has appeared at industry conferences and on podcasts in 2023–2025 to discuss the company’s growth and strategy. At the 2025 WCI conference, he stated that CorVel has been the fastest-growing third-party administrator in the workers’ compensation space since 2006 and is now the third largest occupational TPA. He described the company as a “steady ship” focused on organic growth and customer needs, noting that CorVel carries no debt and has cash reserves. Wheeler also discussed a new training and recruitment program called CorVel University, which he said received over 600 applicants within its first month.

He described this as an opportunity to recruit new talent and bring fresh ideas, and emphasized the importance of face-to-face relationship-building at conferences. Wheeler also spoke about his personal career path, noting that he graduated from the University of Georgia, worked in claims and as a risk manager for a national restaurant chain, and joined CorVel as an account manager because of its technology focus and growth potential. He stated that the company’s approach to innovation means “you go first” and that CorVel has been “first to market” in several areas.
