The year 2022 saw the largest increase in inflation in 40 years. Healthcare inflation rose 9-12% in 2022, spiking insurance rate inflation between 15-20%. These increases may not be sustainable for businesses who are already feeling the pressure of inflation in other areas.
Acrisure can help you navigate employee benefit plans within the healthcare system. Here are a few tips to help increase employee satisfaction and save costs with your employee benefits offering this year.
Get Clear on Compliance

Employee Choice Can Help You Save
There are often a lot of "cooks in the kitchen" when it comes to employee benefits, from insurance companies to multiple layers of distribution parties and beyond. Removing some of these layers can help lower premiums, enhance benefit offerings and put money back into businesses' pockets.
Acrisure's Employee Choice Program helps dramatically simplify the administration and claims experience for supplemental voluntary benefits such as critical illness, accident, and hospital indemnity coverage. If there is a claims surplus, organizations can recoup 75% of that surplus, compared to traditional worksite benefit offerings that sends that surplus to the insurance carriers.
"Acrisure's Employee Benefits offering is the first to develop and distribute a collection of dividend-eligible products in this category, which truly puts our clients in a position to win. That's what we live to do," said Shawn Ferguson, Director of Product Development and Voluntary Benefits at Acrisure.
Viewpoint for 2023: Make Benefits Your Advantage
Complex compliance requirements and rising costs can make saving on your employee benefits program feel impossible. However, it doesn't have to be that way, and you don't have to go through the process alone.
Acrisure's Employee Benefits team uses data to create a robust outlook in conjunction with market trends, healthcare expenditures and benchmarking to tell you where you are, where you're headed and what you can do differently.
"To identify, quantify, prioritize and manage risk, we first must have access to data," explained Logan Barry, Director of Healthcare Strategy at Acrisure Partner GDP Advisors. "With that data, we can more effectively manage the healthcare supply chain for that organization, which helps yield a better experience for the employee and a better financial result for the organization."
Impacting and improving healthcare is a process, not a product. It's the way in which Acrisure serves our clients by addressing their specific needs and risks as an organization.

- New requirements under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act place additional scrutiny on mental health provisions for employer health plans and health insurance issuers
