Group Benefits
The initial step towards a Group Benefits plan begins with understanding your Industry, Workforce and needs and goals for the plan. Typically starting with a traditional group plan structure that encompass benefits such as:
- Group Life Insurance
- AD&D (Accidental Death and Dismemberment)
- Dependent Life Insurance
- Short Term/Long Term Disability
- Extended Health Care
- Dental Care
After evaluating feedback from you and your employees, we suggest which benefits to include. Furthermore, the benefits and plan maximums within each benefit are customized to accommodate the needs of your employees while maintaining a budget (best price) that suits you.
Customize Your Plan
Additional benefits can also be incorporated for enhanced coverage:
- Employee & Family Assistance Programs (EAP)
- Group Critical Illness
- Disability Case Management
- Health care spending accounts: Offer your employees flexible, tax-effective coverage for health-related expenses not covered in their group health insurance plan, or to supplement their benefits. All plans are reassessed annually to confirm alignment between costs and benefits, and to ensure that employee needs continue to be met.
