Need ideas on how to save time? Here's our Plan Comparison Tool update!

​Our Plan Comparison Tool is saving benefits brokers thousands of hours. Find out how you can save time too!

Our 2017 Q4 Stats:
  • Over 50 agents used the Plan Comparison Tool
  • Each comparison took only 53 seconds to run, on average
  • Combined, these agents saved an estimated 1,431 hours in plan research 
 
Start Saving Time!
Here are just a few ways our agents are using the tool:

  • AUDITING:  Make double-checking your plan builds a breeze! Here's an example. 
    Does your agency build plans into an internal tool?  Use our PCT as a second set of eyes.  Review plan changes (they show up in red text) or find plan information that the carriers didn’t include in their summaries (we’ve already done that legwork, going directly to carriers for answers). 
  • EMPLOYEE CHOICE:  Help new hires choose their plan wisely! Here's an example. 
    Are your clients offering two or more medical plans to employees?  Make the process easier for their new hires throughout the year.  Being able to review the plans side-by-side can cut down on employees’ anxiety, too.  
  • RENEWALS:  Get renewals out to clients lickety-split! Here's an example. 
    Although the lion’s share of your groups may have renewed on January 1st, there are still employers renewing throughout the year.  Use the PCT to provide clients with an in-depth review of renewal changes their carrier is making. 
  • OPTIONS:  Work faster, showing off your smarts! Here's an example. 
    Quickly determine which plan options make sense for your client.  Whether they’re focused on acupuncture benefits, maximum PT visits, or lab and x-ray being before the deductible, the PCT provides comparisons to help you quickly answer their in-depth questions.

    About Sandy

    I love numbers.  I'm a math geek. I read benefits industry articles and periodicals for relaxation (but, honestly, I'm still a fun gal).  I also like to share what I've learned and you'll find it all here.
