When we meet with small and middle market companies they tell us that they frustrated with rising health insurance premiums, their employees are dissatisfied because of higher and higher deductibles, co-pays and out of pocket expenses but the insurance industry doesn’t offer them any new choices. Even more interesting is that very few of these companies have a plan for changing this situation and wait for their advisor to deliver their renewal and hope that things improve. Advantage Benefit Solutions works with companies like this and develops a 3 year plan designed to break them from this “Plan Trap”. It is possible to have high employee satisfaction through employee engagement and education. There are two sides to every coin, price on one side and value on the other. Our process is designed to utilize tools and maximize their value through employee engagement and education. Our process is the third side of the coin, the edge, or value creator.
