|

|
|
| |
The Importance of Tools |
|
 |
| |
The rising cost of healthcare and the need to improve service to employees are driving organizations towards greater consumerism in employee benefit plans. With more choices comes greater risk of confusion for employees and greater backend complexity for employers. |
|
 |
| |
Employees need decision support assistance such as calculators and plan comparison tools to help them understand their options and choose the best plans for their families. Employers need tools that simplify the enrollment, administration and billing surrounding more complex benefit plans. |
|
 |
| |
According to Wally Smith, Enwisen president and CEO, “The integration of Enwisen’s knowledge and decision support suite into the Employease solutions is an ideal partnership. By integrating Employease’s automation tools with our on-demand, ’in context’ communications, employers will enjoy a seamless self-service experience that will save them money and help their employees become more informed benefits consumers.” |
