“It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.”
From our early beginnings, we have strived to attract team members and develop strategic relationships that are, at their core, naturally curious and perpetually seeking. Not fee-driven transactional bots. We believe as an organization if we build a team and secure strategic relationships that share a common belief that being of service to others always comes first, then we will always find amicable customer-centric solutions to any challenges, not if but when, they arise.
Our core team has decades of combined experience providing strategic counsel and first-class customer service for self-funded employers and their plan members. From navigating complex medical stop loss underwriting challenges and modeling captive proformas to performing discrimination testing, securing quotes for ancillary coverages or solving a members’ claim issue — our team is standing ready to be “all in.”
Given today’s complex healthcare environment we believe the best solution for our customers is to provide access to a portfolio of independent subject matter experts and third-party specialists. we engage the best independent and transparent subject matter experts and/or third-party specialists to address each unique situation in the most cost-and time-efficient manner. Independent specialists that can leverage their experiences from a broad base of clients.
