With the dramatic pace of change in the health care industry, it’s hard for anyone to keep up. From new state and federal regulations to sophisticated plan designs and funding arrangements, administering employee health benefits has become increasingly complex. Park Row Associates provides you with the information and services you need to make the best decision about your plan. Here’s how we do it:
We’ll scrutinize all aspects of your company’s employee benefit plan – including the rating methodology, claims history, reserves, demographics, profit margins and financial arrangements. Our detailed analysis can help you uncover any “hidden” costs in your health care premium.
We’ll solicit competitive proposals and negotiate cost-effective renewal rates with health carriers on your behalf.
We’ll help educate your company’s decision makers on all available options in the health care marketplace and also help communicate those options to your employees.
We’ll provide periodic budget estimates well in advance of renewal and recommend practical business strategies – such as plan design changes and alternative financial arrangements – to help control your current and future health care costs.
Next to salaries, medical benefits are often the largest expense for an employer. This is why Park Row works closely with our clients to find the right carrier, plan design, contribution structure and funding arrangement to satisfy their needs. Now more than ever there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to your medical insurance plans.
