BeneTrac’s robust benefits management platform offers real-time access to information, online enrollment tools, presentation of consolidated bills, payroll/carrier integration, and automated eligibility tracking. When offering new lines of coverage through Assurant Employee Benefits (such as disability, dental, voluntary insurance and other products) with BeneTrac, brokers and employers can obtain potential cost savings both through lower costs of using BeneTrac’s platform, resulting from the partnership, and greater efficiencies obtained in managing benefits with the software.

“With the emergence of healthcare exchanges and increased regulatory requirements, corporations and employees need reliable real-time access to comprehensive benefits information,” said Summer Hamilton, vice president of sales for BeneTrac. “At BeneTrac, we give mid-sized organizations an affordable, fully integrated solution to ensure accuracy and enrollment, keep track of declines in coverage, and ensure compliance. Our partnership with Assurant Employee Benefits is a natural extension for BeneTrac and is consistent with our model of working closely with brokers to expand service by leveraging technology.”
