Plan
Administration / Benefit Outsourcing
Obligations on the employer are continuously on the rise in the business world
today. HIPAA, COBRA and FMLA are just a few legal items that have imposed more legal
responsibility on employers than ever before. The penalties are stiff and the rules
can be difficult to track.
Our Plan Administration / Benefit Outsourcing is the
answer. We provide the following services according to today's regulations so that
your staff is relieved of this responsibility.
| Communication: |
All employees receive a customized kit at the time of hire
and open enrollment. This kit gives a full description of benefits and costs,
carrier application and information as well as an "800" number to our staff for
personal assistance. We also perform on site meetings to educate your employees on
the best way to use the benefits that you have provided for them. |
| |
|
| Record Keeping: |
Our staff maintains your firm's master eligibility file.
All daily changes are kept up to date daily and reported to all necessary parties
including the carrier and you the client. This system is designed to get your
employee's choices communicated to the proper parties to avoid claim problems, incorrect
payroll contributions or possible COBRA penalties. |
| |
|
| Billing: |
All carrier bills are processed and audited by our staff.
Your only obligation is to put your check in the mail to the carrier. |
| |
|
| Employee Assistance: |
All needs of the employees from enrollment procedures and
provider network issues to dealing with problem claims are included. This reduces
the daily flow of phone calls to your staff, allowing them more time to deal with the
issues of their job. |
| |
|
| Compliance: |
Plan documents and annual filings are prepared for your
signature and mailing. |
