Bio
Stacey Merritt
My business income is derived form the relationships that employee benefits agents have with their commercial clients. I have met and done business with literally hundreds of agents. What I really appreciate about Josh is his extremely close attention to detail and his brisk nature. When Josh says "I'll get back with you", he means sooner, not later, and it's usually a matter of hours. He's a super smart guy who takes care of his business, and he is technically at the top of the pyramid. I consider it very fortunate that he has chosen to do business with my company.

Josh and his team just recently started handling our group health benefits. Josh and his team are outstanding and they not only service the account but Butler Benefits is actively looking for ways for us to lower the out-of-pocket cost for my employees and lower our upcoming premium renewals. It's rare that you find innovative people in their industry, but Butler Benefits is just that. I would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking to curb their group health costs.
Chris Larson
Josh is at the cutting edge of healthcare benefits in an area of the world that has been known to lag at times. He has made changes to how he works with employers and what advice he gives them. These changes have likely decreased his company's profitability short term. Josh made this sacrifice because he believes that he can offer employers great healthcare benefits in a way that is financially sustainable for the company and our country. He has recognized that healthcare expenditures are dragging our country's economy down and he has rolled up his sleeves to do something about it. He's even gone so far as to take his own time to help the employee of one of his clients save about $4,000 by doing the leg work to get that employee to the Surgery Center of Oklahoma. Ask him to tell you the story!
