Plan Design Consultation

Customizing Your Employee Benefits For Maximum Return

Plan design is the first, and probably most important, step in creating an effective employee benefit program. Each worksite situation is unique, so the key is to design a plan to achieve your specific goals.

The options can seem endless, and understanding your needs is the best place to start. Whether you choose plans that are fully-insured, self-insured, company provided, traditional, or consumer-driven, DPAS representatives have proven and effective skills to develop an ''employee benefit strategy'' that reflects your organizational objectives.

For instance, you may want to offer an FSA, HRA, or HSA as a standalone plan. Or you may see the benefit of stacking the plans to include a combination of the three. You may even offer a ''menu'' of plans from which your employees can choose.

Our consultants will complete an analysis of your benefits program to determine how it relates to your total compensation package, philosophy, employee needs, and budget. We will then formulate a plan that provides access to a variety of options for you and your employees.

Clearly understanding your employee benefits objectives and providing the right services means you need to offer programs that are valued by both your employees and your company. You can expect the following process during our comprehensive consultation and implementation program:

1. Identify and develop benefit objectives
2. Review and evaluate current plan design
