We believe the investment in your employee benefits program should be evaluated and managed with the same degree of care and expertise as other aspects of your business. While providing competitive benefit options is an essential component of what we do, our core benefit consulting services extend well beyond traditional plan pricing.

The aim of our in-depth strategic planning process is to arrive at a comprehensive benefits program that addresses the needs of your employees within the financial parameters set by your company. Time spent upfront learning your company culture, plan objectives and plan performance shapes the strategic direction moving forward.

Understanding what fuels your health plan costs is fundamental to identifying opportunities for immediate and long-term savings. Claims and utilization reports provide a big-picture summary of plan performance and member utilization patterns. Our analysis digs deeper and uncovers what's driving wasteful spending and inefficient health care consumption.

Prescription drug costs are accelerating at a faster pace than medical care. Pharmacy spend, driven by specialty drugs developed to treat complex and chronic diseases, is expected to exceed 50% of combined medical and pharmacy spend in coming years. In any evaluation of benefit plan costs, it is important to focus attention on your pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) as well as member utilization patterns. Our team will evaluate, recommend and implement a program designed to affect how members utilize the prescription feature of the medical plan.
