The Group Benefits Ecosystem: Defining Value

The Group Benefits ecosystem is crowded with stakeholders at different places in the quote-to-claim lifecycle. For each, today’s value proposition differs. For some, it’s about strategies to win new business through RFP & Quoting APIs, or medical claims integrations for voluntary benefits. For others focused on new case install, policy admin, and ben admin ecosystems, it’s about efficiencies that prevent premium leakage and raise retention with existing books of business. Which is the bigger priority: revenue or efficiency? Which drives the most value? And how will new standards shake up the mix? Join us for a panel discussion to share insights.
