 Our approach to group benefit consulting and brokerage service is based on a partner concept between Patterson-Bryant and our client. This approach focuses on jointly identifying key concerns of the client and providing a proactive program that meets those objectives. This process involves many components from establishing appropriate coverage levels, selection of vendors, custom design of communication and enrollment, and the determination of funding methods along with superior customer service.
As an employer with 100 or more employees, you are already keenly aware of the importance of your employee benefit plans to attract and retain good staff. However, as premiums rise, it becomes increasingly more difficult to balance the conflicting demands of cost and coverage. Creative plan design and good cost management are important to your success in this ever changing arena. You must constantly stay in touch with new laws, new product trends and new challenges as the needs of your employee workforce change and the business environment changes around you. Plan designs for larger companies vary greatly and will depend on your workforce.
The complexity of modern employee benefit plans has forced most employers to simply try to survive the annual enrollment process and stay out of trouble during the rest of the year. Patterson-Bryant clients have taken control and are moving toward using employee benefits as a strategic resource to support their broader business goals. This new direction is the result of tools and processes developed by Patterson-Bryant, including strategic consulting services such as our Claims Recovery and Clinical Disease Management Programs.
