Federal Way Group Health Insurance & Employee Benefit Plans

Group Health Insurance and Employee Benefits

An attractive and affordable employee benefits package can provide tax breaks for businesses and employees. A well crafted plan will offer financial relief to workers and still provide a tax deduction for employers that pay premiums on behalf of their employees. The tax benefits can be beneficial to your company’s bottom line as well as the employees’ personal finances.

A competitive benefits package will also result in reduced training costs and high turnover for your business. It also creates a positive working environment and draws interest from qualified candidates. A positive work culture can improve employees’ attitude and morale especially if the coverage is included in the employee benefits offering.

What to Look For In an Insurance Provider

Selecting the best health insurance package to cater for your health care needs can be difficult due to the many insurance providers you have to choose from. Here are points to consider when choosing an insurance company:

• Your insurance provider should handle your claims and answer questions correctly. Find out from other clients their experiences with your provider to enable you to determine whether you want to do business with them.
• Find out your provider’s experience when it comes to offering group health insurance and employee benefits. Not every company can deliver their services.
• Check the company’s rating to determine their ability to provide you with a group health insurance plan that will cater for all your needs.

Benefits of Working with an Insurance Broker

Before dismissing the possibility of working with a broker to write your employee benefits plan, consider the brokerage advantage. These benefits include:

• Brokers will not convince you to purchase a plan from specific companies because they are not obligated to sell products from particular companies. They will instead find you the best plan from their carriers.
• Brokers have connections with a lot of insurance companies hence able to save you time by comparing quotes from various companies and analyzing them on your behalf.
