Comprehensive 3-phase approach.

We use a thorough three-phase approach designed to effectively manage employee health benefits plans with care and responsibility. Our focus is on ensuring compliance, accountability and cost control.

We begin with a thorough assessment that identifies opportunities for value creation in your employee health benefits plans. This phase involves reviewing fees, expenses and contract terms, conducting price point benchmarking and assessing the supplier lineup, along with any conflicts of interest and member financial risk.

In this phase, we implement optimized sourcing protocols to enhance procurement. We focus on developing competitive supplier options and optimizing RFPs to ensure maximum value through strategic supplier engagement.

The final phase establishes a customized governance framework. We enhance contract management, improve benefit committee structures, conduct supplier audits and provide actionable reporting to support informed decision-making. This ensures effective renewal support and comprehensive governance.

Benefits advisory capabilities.

Our comprehensive benefits diagnostic includes a thorough, industry-independent assessment of your organization's current health and benefit plans. This analysis features a detailed Total Cost of Benefits (TCOB) evaluation, identifying prioritized savings opportunities and potential program enhancements. We provide guided support to ensure that your benefit strategies adhere to best practices and compliance standards.

We develop annual operating plan recommendations to facilitate continuous improvement and performance optimization. Our services encompass holding suppliers accountable for their contractual commitments, providing insights into industry trends and market updates, implementing continuous improvement and quality control mechanisms, and performing comprehensive plan governance and risk management with meticulous documentation and stewardship.
