The
Simple Business Solutions offering is part of a fully integrated
system designed to meet the unique needs of companies with fewer than
50 insured employees.
Fort
Lauderdale, Fla., (April 13, 2015) -- Engage
PEO, a leading professional employer organization
providing HR outsourcing solutions to small and mid-sized businesses
across the U.S., has developed a competitive suite of employer group
benefit programs tailored to meet the unique and challenging needs of
businesses with 10 to 49 employees. Engage Simple Business Solutions
provides access to a select portfolio of medical plans that all meet
the minimum individual mandate requirements of the Affordable Care
Act (ACA). A suite of voluntary benefit products are also part of the
mix, giving companies of all sizes the ability to offer their
employees a variety of supplemental plans to fit individual needs,
from dental and vision plans to life insurance and disability
coverage and tax advantaged flexible spending and health savings
programs.
"As
HR advisors, it is our job to continuously provide viable options to
our clients and help them make smart choices, especially when it
comes to health benefits and compliance," says Dorothy Miraglia
King, executive vice president of Engage. "Some of our clients
and their employees, however, can sometimes be overwhelmed when
offered too many choices or options that are more suitable for larger
employers. That's why our Simple Business Solutions suite is
streamlined and designed to be flexible and affordable."
Through
this offering, Engage's clients can select among three competitively
priced medical plans provided by Aetna, plus an attractive package of
voluntary benefits to offer employees, all delivered through a
convenient, paperless online enrollment process. Engage Simple
Business Solutions complements a more robust portfolio of
ACA-compliant benefit plans and products geared to employers of 50 or
more employees, provided via a private Engage Corporate Exchange.
"It
is critically important for employers with fewer than 50 employees to
realize that once they offer health benefits to their employees, they
turn on the ACA switch," said Jay Starkman, chief executive
officer of Engage. "That means that they are subject to the same
Affordable Care Act mandates imposed on larger employers. Engage
manages all of the complex ACA compliance issues for our clients no
matter how many employees they have - that is a huge load off of
their shoulders."
All
Engage benefit plan solutions are offered as part of a comprehensive
set of human resources services for business that include payroll,
workers' compensation, safety, tax and HR compliance delivered by
dedicated HR field managers - all of whom are lawyers - in addition
to client service and benefits specialists.
"What
is clear is that all businesses are eager to find smart, simple and
efficient tools to navigate the evolving regulatory maze of the
Affordable Care Act," Starkman added. "As a full service
PEO, Engage can meet that demand for every segment of the business
community."
