There are many group benefit insurance carriers to choose from.  The number of options can be overwhelming if you don’t have an expert on your side to guide you through the process.  An experienced advisor has access to quote all of the insurance carriers, including the Chambers of Commerce Group Insurance Plan.  They can compare your needs with all of the available insurance carriers and be able to make the best possible match for your company.  Finding the right carrier can be a daunting task without the right help.

Here are a few things to consider when purchasing a group benefit plan for your business:

– Cost:  the overall cost has to line up with your budget.

– Size: make sure the carrier will support you, no matter how small your group gets.

– Flexibility: check that the carrier is flexible, if you need to change your plan design you are eligible to do so.

– Service: does the carrier provides excellent customer service and have an easy to use online platform for all employees to manage their accounts.

– Coverage:  while a packaged benefit plan is quick to set up, it may not meet the needs of your employees.  Value is just as important as price.

– Stability:  most plans are experience rated.  In order to keep your premiums stable from year to year, look for a pooled plan that can help spread the risk.

– Guarantees:  Look for a plan with the fewest exclusions and most assurances, or benefits that don’t require medical questionnaires.

– Longevity:  look for an advisor that has access to cost-control tools that can help you modify your plan as your benefit needs change.
