The One-on-One Enrollment Specialists<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specializing in Employee Benefit Enrollments Since 2008<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Benefits are expensive and to many employees are confusing!  Although an important part of every employer\u2019s compensation package, employees typically do not appreciate how much employers contribute to their benefits and the pace of rate increases on health insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping employees better understand their benefit options is a challenge to many employers.  Smaller companies often do not have a dedicated, full-time Human Resources person and larger companies often have so many employees it\u2019s nearly impossible to provide more than a high-level overview.  It\u2019s difficult to meet every employee\u2019s need and answer all of their questions, which can be quite personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Annual enrollment periods are communicated in a variety of ways including group meetings, webinars, emails, posters and word of mouth.  Unfortunately, employees often lose interest in group meetings and webinars which are described as \u2018boring\u2019, don\u2019t take the time to open or fully read emails, ignore postings, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, employees:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
• Are confused regarding deductibles, maximum out-of-pocket costs, HSAs, HRAs, FSAs, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
• May not fully comprehend the advantages of in-network vs. out-of-network providers and balance billing by out-of-network providers resulting in complaints and frustration with their employer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
• Believe if they do not enroll in Health insurance, they are not eligible to enroll in voluntary, employee paid disability and life insurance as well as any other supplemental benefits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
• Overwhelm HR with questions, do not properly complete their enrollment, miss the open enrollment deadline, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
• Consider voluntary, employee paid supplemental benefits such as Accident, Critical Illness and Hospital as separate benefits rather than as part of a comprehensive benefit package designed to help cover Medical co-pays and deductibles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
• When given the option to self-enroll, do not even open up and consider many of the benefits their employer has made available.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

  The end result, is employees often do not take full advantage of the benefits offered; blindly waiving benefits which could be of significant importance to them and their families and\/or not selecting the options best suited to them and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  It\u2019s been proven the best method to help employees better understand their benefit options is to offer one-on-one meetings with an experienced benefit counselor.\u00a0 It\u2019s a free service to employers resulting not only in higher employee satisfaction with their employer and the benefits available to them but also greater confidence in benefit selections while significantly reducing Human Resources\u2019 workload. <\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  An Eastbridge Consulting study found 65% of employees say a one-on-one meeting with a benefit counselor is the most helpful way to introduce them to benefit changes.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
