Independent Employee Benefits Consulting
Benefizz helps employers uncover costly benefit plan problems, replace underperforming vendors and restructure employee benefits to improve coverage while controlling long-term costs.
Some of the best opportunities appear when a plan has gone unchallenged for years, a vendor is not performing or a traditional renewal has become the strategy instead of simply one part of it.
40 Years of Experience
We have spent four decades finding innovative ways to reduce employer costs while providing strong benefits for employees. The goal is not simply to quote another plan. It is to understand what is not working and determine whether there is a better way.

Employer Benefits Results
These are examples of what can happen when an employer stops accepting an underperforming vendor, outdated plan design or automatic renewal as the only available option.
Automotive Parts Supplier
A large automotive parts supplier to Honda was dealing with an FMLA administration vendor that was not performing.
We researched the market, identified a stronger FMLA administration solution and reduced costs on the employer's Life, Short-Term Disability and Long-Term Disability plans.
We also redesigned the disability plans to provide greater employee coverage at a lower cost.
500-Life Manufacturer
A manufacturer of utility transformers needed to improve its employee healthcare plan while controlling the cost of traditional fully insured coverage.
We created a hybrid healthcare strategy using BCBSAL as the fully insured backstop with a self-funded plan administered through a third-party administrator.
Over five years, the employer saved approximately $4 million compared with what the fully insured BCBSAL plan would have cost while providing greater coverage.
Alabama Radiology Group
Alabama's largest radiology group had Life, Short-Term Disability and Long-Term Disability plans that had not been reviewed in more than five years.
We restructured the program and reduced the group's annual cost of coverage by more than $150,000.
Plan-design changes also increased disability coverage for the group's employees.
Independent Benefits Plan Review
If your healthcare, Life, STD, LTD, FMLA administration or related employee benefit programs have simply been renewed year after year, there may be opportunities to reduce employer costs, improve employee coverage or both.
