Group benefits
Free online employee enrollment for groups I place.
I can set up the groups I place with a web-based system that handles employee information and benefits enrollment. Enrollment runs on a hosted platform (currently Ease). Access is approved case by case, and it generally makes sense for groups of five or more employees.
What your employees get
Step-by-step enrollment. Each employee logs in with a unique username and password and is guided through reviewing their personal and dependent information and making their elections.
Only the plans they qualify for. Employees are only offered plans they meet the eligibility requirements for, so they cannot pick coverage or amounts they are not eligible for.
Changes for qualifying events. Outside of the new hire and open enrollment windows, the system allows election changes when there is a qualifying event.
Benefit summaries in one place. Each plan has an outline of benefits, including a benefit summary, summary plan description, and certificate of coverage.
Total compensation statements. Employees get a statement that confirms their elections and shows the employer contribution.
What you get as the employer
Census and enrollment reports. Pull enrollment by plan along with the employee and dependent information stored in the system. The reports come out in Excel and work for payroll deductions and premium reconciliation.
Change reports. See every change made in the system during any date range you choose.
Open enrollment comparison. Compare renewal plans with last year to see which employees changed their elections for the upcoming year.
Exports for payroll and carriers. Everything stored in the system can be exported to hand to payroll processors, insurance companies, and other benefit vendors.
No handwritten forms. Elections are entered once, online, which cuts transcription errors and the time it takes to get employees enrolled.
Why it is free
The question you are likely asking yourself is how I can offer this free of charge. It is simple. The world of health insurance and employee benefits is quickly evolving into a much more competitive landscape. Brokers are looking for ways to bring value to their clients and stand out.
By helping you streamline your employee benefits management and enrollments, we cut down on the time it takes to get employees enrolled, reduce costly and time consuming transcription errors, and give you a more complete picture of your benefits offerings. That gives you better access to reports and information to structure your benefits, and it makes me more efficient at providing quotes. Those efficiencies mean better, more accurate customer service and faster response times when I shop the marketplace for the best plans.
It is a win-win-win. You get better access to employee and benefits information, I get help providing your information to insurance companies, and the insurance companies benefit by not having to enter employee enrollments manually or decipher illegible handwritten enrollment forms.
