Benefits Think Employee benefits insurance distribution is stuck in the past. It’s time to modernize it

Published Updated 5 Min Read

In the age of big data, most employee benefits are still bought and sold in a painfully antiquated mode that levies undue costs on everyone involved.

The process is powered by onerous email exchanges, dense PDF documents and numerous layers of manual transcription. It’s a system plagued by inefficiency and human error, where transactions bog down brokers and carriers alike. Even worse, the outdated methods frequently fail to deliver employers and employees the insurance coverage that best fits their needs — an unacceptable outcome.
