Group Insurance
Pulling your benefits program out of the stone age
Navigating the Changing Landscape
Faced with year-after-year increases, employers need to take action to protect the viability of their benefit plans.
Prescription drug costs are the top area of cost exposure for employers offering group insurance plans today. Health plan costs continue to increase at rates that exceed CPI, on average 8-10%, driven in large part by high cost specialty drugs.
Disability claims rank second in respect to costs, mainly as a result of increasing mental health issues. Absences due to injury or sickness not only cost the plan but lead to disruption of workflow and additional internal costs.
All too often, employers make budgetary changes to their plans that simply transfer costs to their employees. However, in order to maintain competitive costs over time, changes must incentivize and drive behaviour. Employees need to become informed consumers and masters of their own health.
What our clients think
I had the pleasure of working with Gianna for the implementation of a new group insurance program for our company and she was very attentive to our needs. Her presentation of the program to employees was very clear. Her professionalism and high availability made the process easy for everyone. I highly recommend her!
