Benefit management
Picking the right plans for your team each year is a moving target. We compare your renewal costs, factor in the real issues employees raise with our service center, and shop the market so every plan decision is backed by data.
How does No Additional Cost sound?
BenefitEdge provides value-added services designed to help your company save time in the administration of employee benefits.
There are no additional fees for any of our services — for what you already pay today, your team gets all of it.
See what we doWhat we do
All of this — at no additional cost.
Brokers are paid by the insurance carriers, so for what you already pay today, your company gets every service below.
Customer service center
When an employee runs into trouble using their benefits, they reach a dedicated phone line and a private email that connect them to a real claims advocate. We take the back-and-forth with carriers off your HR team's plate.
Enrollment process
Enrollment usually means stacks of long carrier forms for employees to complete and for HR to check and route. We move the whole process online, so elections are captured cleanly and sent to carriers without the paper chase.
Carrier billing audits
Even careful eligibility tracking leaves gaps, and carrier invoices often bill for people who have left or at the wrong rate. We audit those statements against your actual enrollment so you stop quietly overpaying.
COBRA administration
COBRA is unforgiving — a missed notice or deadline puts the liability on you. We handle the notifications, elections, and timelines so the process stays compliant and off your desk.
Employee education
Benefits only pay off when people understand them. We help your employees learn how their plans actually work — what is covered and how to use it — so they can make confident choices.
ACA compliance
Federal, state, and local benefit rules stack up fast, and the reporting carries real penalties. We help keep your plans aligned with ACA requirements and the filings that come with them.
Carrier partners
We work with all the major carriers.
From national medical and dental plans to vision, life, and disability, we shop a broad lineup of trusted carriers to build the right coverage for your team.
