Tyler Borzileri is a healthcare executive and recognized leader in patient logistics, access-to-care, rural health, and value-based care innovation. As Advisory Board Chair of the James S. Kunzman Foundation, he brings to the role a career shaped by one conviction: access, whether to a doctor's appointment or a baseball diamond, should never be determined by where a person lives or what circumstances they were born into.
Tyler serves as Vice President at Hive Management, LLC, a management company overseeing a diverse portfolio across a wide range of industries, with a primary focus on healthcare startups and acquisition-stage businesses. Among his most significant accomplishments has been helping transform MedRide from a local startup into Colorado's largest Non-Emergency Medical Transportation provider, expanding operations across multiple states while improving access-to-care for patients in every Colorado county.
Results & Mission-Driven Leadership
Throughout his career, Tyler has advanced the idea that patient logistics belong within the healthcare continuum rather than outside of it. He has worked with health systems, payers, and state agencies to demonstrate that transportation is a critical component of care delivery. When patients in rural Colorado cannot get to appointments, receive dialysis, or complete chemotherapy treatments, the consequences can be significant for both health outcomes and healthcare costs. Tyler often describes Non-Emergency Medical Transportation as a lifeline for patients. By integrating specialized transportation, local infrastructure, and digital navigation into a value-based care framework, he has helped demonstrate that addressing logistical barriers is an essential part of improving healthcare delivery.
That commitment has been especially visible in Colorado's Eastern Plains, mountain communities, and frontier counties, where reliable transportation can determine whether patients are able to access essential care. Tyler's work has influenced how healthcare facilities, health plans, managed care organizations, and policymakers view transportation, not simply as a ride, but as an important link to better outcomes and a more sustainable healthcare system.
In 2026, Tyler and his team led the successful passage of HB26-1328, building a coalition, navigating legislative negotiations, and testifying before the Colorado General Assembly to advance meaningful reforms to the state's Non-Emergency Medical Transportation program. Passed with bipartisan support, the landmark legislation restructured how Colorado funds healthcare logistics by introducing key financial innovations:
- Maximizing Federal Resources: It requires Non-Emergency Medical Transportation expenditures to be categorized as formal medical services rather than administrative costs, maximizing available federal Medicaid matching funds.
- Substantial State Savings: Reflecting these strategic financing changes, the bill reduces state appropriations by approximately $76,000 from the General Fund and over $20.9 million from the Healthcare Affordability and Sustainability Hospital Provider Fee Cash Fund.
The bill also strengthened oversight, established new provider accountability standards, and directly addressed network gaps affecting rural patients. Its passage reflected years of collaboration with legislators, state agencies, transportation providers, and community health advocates across Colorado.
Community & Philanthropy
Outside of his professional work, Tyler serves on the Board of Directors of AgeWise Colorado, a statewide online platform connecting older adults and caregivers with resources and services that support dignity and independence. His two board commitments, youth access to sports through the James S. Kunzman Foundation and access-to-care through AgeWise Colorado, reflect a shared belief that strong communities invest in people throughout every stage of life.
A Colorado native, Tyler grew up in Littleton as a three-sport athlete before earning a Division I baseball scholarship to the University of Northern Colorado. The discipline, relationships, and sense of purpose he developed through collegiate athletics continue to shape his leadership and approach to service.
Tyler joined the JSKF Advisory Board because he believes in investing where it creates lasting impact. Whether through scholarships, community gatherings, or equipment that supports teams season after season, he sees the foundation's work as a long-term investment in people and communities rather than a one-time contribution. He brings experience building mission-driven organizations, public policy expertise, and relationships across business, healthcare, athletics, and government to help the James S. Kunzman Foundation expand its reach and deepen its impact for future generations.
Together with his wife, Tyler is raising two children who inspire his commitment to building stronger communities and creating opportunities for the next generation.
