Helpful answers

Questions worth asking.

Start with the questions clients ask most often, then open the complete FAQ library when you want to explore further.

How many employees are needed for group benefits?

Minimum participation and employer-contribution rules vary by carrier, product, state, and group type. Some small groups can qualify with very few eligible employees.

How much must the employer contribute?

Requirements vary by plan and carrier. Employers may pay a percentage, fixed amount, or use a defined-contribution approach, subject to applicable rules.

Can employees choose different plan options?

Many employers offer multiple medical or voluntary-benefit choices, but eligibility, participation, administration, and affordability should be evaluated before expanding the menu.

What benefits can be offered besides medical coverage?

Options may include dental, vision, life, short- and long-term disability, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, employee assistance, and retirement benefits.

What happens when an employee leaves?

Coverage generally ends under plan rules, but COBRA, state continuation, conversion, portability, Marketplace, or other rights may apply depending on the plan and employer.

What employer compliance responsibilities may apply?

Responsibilities can include plan documents, notices, eligibility, payroll deductions, privacy, claims procedures, COBRA or state continuation, ACA rules, ERISA, and government filings. Qualified counsel or administrators should confirm obligations.

When should a company begin group benefits?

Ideally, before a renewal, tax deadline, financing event, ownership change, hiring initiative, or unexpected disruption. Early planning creates more choices and allows time to coordinate the right professionals.

What company information is usually needed?

The review may involve ownership information, workforce data, current plans or policies, financial statements, payroll information, prior tax returns, company goals, and upcoming business decisions. The exact request depends on the engagement.

Can the strategy be scaled for a small business?

Yes. A good business solution should reflect the company’s actual size, cash flow, workforce, and priorities. It can begin with the most important risks or opportunities and expand as the company grows.

Will you coordinate with our existing professionals?

Yes. Business decisions often involve an accountant, tax preparer, attorney, payroll provider, benefits administrator, insurance professional, or investment adviser. Coordination helps reduce conflicting recommendations and missed responsibilities.

How often should the company review the strategy?

At least annually and whenever the company experiences material changes in revenue, staffing, ownership, financing, benefits, tax law, or long-term direction.

Does a consultation obligate the company to purchase a product?

No. The consultation helps define the need and possible paths forward. Product selection, professional engagements, costs, and implementation decisions should be considered separately.
