Employee Benefits
From strategic guidance to streamlined administration, we work hard to deliver value.
We dedicate our expertise, time, and resources to help you navigate the ever-more complex world of health insurance and related health benefits. Our mission is to maximize value, control costs, and educate you and your employees in the purchase, management, and administration of health benefits.
Arguably the most important thing we do, it begins with your objectives and the needs of your employees too. Then – every year – the evaluation of your current benefits in the context of current markets and legislation, searching for that sweet spot between strength of coverage and cost. The process involves various elements, including:
- Plan benchmarking and design
- Cost-benefit financial analysis
- Contribution modeling
- Network analysis – both macro and micro level
- Employee surveys
An efficient, accurate system and workflows will free up your time to focus on other important aspects of your business. Whether we’re leveraging a current technology platform you have in place, or implementing one of our preferred platforms, such as Maxwell Health or PlanSource, or utilizing a more basic combination of forms and documents, we will streamline your workflows.
