At EmployerAdvocates, we recognize that employee benefit programs are not only a critical component to attracting and retaining top talent, but also one of the largest investments or expenses that an employer can make.

Our actively-managed programs help employers ensure that the allocation of dollars spent on employee benefits is an investment that yields dividends, and not simply an expense.

We accomplish this through a very refined approach to assessing the underlying cost-drivers, then first targeting those strategies that will yield the greatest return on investment for our clients — striking the optimal balance between maintaining the highest quality benefits for plan members, and increasing the return on investment for our clients.

Our general employee benefit consulting programs include:

  • Fully insured health plans
