5 Key Questions Insurance Advisors Should Ask During Renewal Discussions
Renewal discussions can be a bit overwhelming, but they’re also a prime opportunity for insurance advisors to connect with their clients. These conversations go beyond premiums and plan details, it’s about understanding what’s changed for your clients and how you can better support them going forward.
Here are five key questions to ask during renewal discussions to make sure the needs of the business are being met:
Using myFlexplan to Help Provide Mental Health Benefits
In the past, employee benefits were mostly about covering the basics—medical insurance, dental care, and maybe some life insurance. While those are still important, today’s employees expect more. Specifically, they’re looking for better mental health support. And let’s face it, traditional benefits often fall short when it comes to mental health services. That’s where myFlexplan can make a real difference.
How Health and Wellness Spending Accounts Complement Traditional Benefits Plans
If you’re offering traditional benefits plans to your clients, you’re already providing a solid foundation of support for their employees. But have you considered how health and wellness spending accounts (HSAs and WSAs) can take those benefits to the next level? Think of these plans with myHSA as the perfect sidekicks to traditional plans—adding flexibility, coverage, and a personal touch that can make a big difference.
