Life Is Complicated. Selling Benefits Doesn’t Have To Be.

Personal Benefits Plan
What is the Personal Benefits Plan?
The Personal Benefits Plan Is An Alternative to Group Health Insurance.
Employer funds the benefit plan.
Each employee is given a Benefits Savings Account.
Funds may be used by the employee to buy whatever health insurance and other benefits they want and need.
You help the employer set the budget, and help each employee
choose their own benefits package. It’s
that simple!
Here’s How It Works…
1. Use our online analysis tool to calculate the costs and savings for each
employee’s health benefits, based on real market data and actual employee
needs.
2. Based on that, advise the employer how much to deposit into each employee’s Benefits Savings
Account with AHR each month.
3. Meet with each employee one-on-one to help them choose their optimal health insurance & other
benefits they may want.
4. Employees use their Benefits Savings Accounts at AHR to pay for
the benefits they choose. It’s consumer-directed benefits!
It’s Smart, Simple, and Hassle Free!
Personal Benefit Plans are ACA Exempt.
Personal Benefits Plans are not considered a “group health plan” by the ACA, so complex ACA rules & reporting mandates are eliminated:
No annual returns to document healthcare benefits
No Summary Plan Descriptions (SPD) or CMS Credible Coverage reports
No COBRA
Benefits Savings Account deposits are compensation, not premium reimbursement. They can be adjusted to fit the needs of each individual employee, because there aren’t any nondiscrimination requirements.
ACA exempt means simple, flexible & stable benefits.
Personal Benefits Plan: The Smart Alternative to Group Health Insurance.
Benefits based on real numbers:
It eliminates the waste inherent in group
health insurance and improves employees
satisfaction.
In the under 50 Employee Market, Personal Benefit Plans are a Better Solution.

Cost Efficiency &
Effectiveness
Employees overwhelmingly prefer to choose their own personal benefits packages over group health insurance.
Once your clients shift to a Personal Benefits Plan, their benefits problem is solved. They don’t have to worry about group health insurance again.
Personal Benefits Plans are more cost efficient, & provide insulation against insurance rate increases. For most employers, these plans cost substantially less than group health insurance.
But YOU are the Key. Your Personalized Help in Choosing Benefits is Essential to Employees.
Choice is bewildering and insurance is confusing to many employees. That is why you are absolutely essential. Your knowledge and expertise makes choosing insurance easy. As their Personal Benefits Advocate, you can help them choose their optimal coverage, based on their own unique needs:
Out-of-pocket expense & premium limits
Special kinds of coverage they may need, including voluntary
The doctors & hospitals they want
The insurance companies they prefer
It’s health insurance with your touch, making benefits choices simple, pleasant and easy for your clients and employees.
Personal Benefit Plans are a Much Better Solution for Brokers, too.
Sell Throughout The Entire Year
Simply because terminating group coverage is a qualifying event.
Enhanced Income Our “Set your Own Commission” approach means that you set your PMPM commissions on each case. Plus, you get 2 revenue streams: your insurance commissions, and AHR commissions. You can earn
more on each case than you could by selling group health insurance.
Cross-selling One-on-one time with each
employee means you get to present all of the products you sell, including
voluntary, financial planning and P&C.
Eliminate BOR RiskYour commissions from AHR are by
contract and can’t be assigned without your approval. And it’s virtually
impossible for a competing broker to get BOR reassignments on each
employee’s individual policies.
Easy RenewalsRenewals are incredibly simple and
efficient. Just meet with the employer to adjust Benefit Savings Account deposit
amounts as may be needed, and that’s it!
AHR Will Support You Every Step Of The Way.
Selling a Personal Benefits Plan and individual policies is a little different than selling group insurance. You are going to need some training and support.
We will train you, for free. In a live, interactive, online session conducted by a professional
benefits educator. It takes about 3 hours to complete.
We will provide you with access to our online Personal Benefits Plan
analysis tool, for free. You will be able to show your
prospective clients exactly how much they will save through a Personal
Benefits Plan.
We will provide you with sales and collateral materials, for free. You can customize them to meet your needs and fit your corporate
image.
We will provide you with an AHR Mentor, who will be your
resource for personal and ongoing advice, help and
support.
