BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Employee Navigator, one of the nation’s leading benefits and HR solutions for brokers, and Reliance Standard, a leading provider of employee benefits and absence management, have announced a new partnership. This partnership will increase opportunities for small and medium sized business owners to offer employees Reliance Standard benefits plans and help simplify the enrollment and administration process.
This integration will allow businesses with as few as twenty employees to access these quality employee benefits in a modern self-service environment. Reliance Standard’s broad suite of benefits will be available on the Employee Navigator platform, including life, disability, dental, vision, hospital indemnity, critical illness and accident coverages.
“Reliance Standard is committed to creating efficiencies and simplifying process for our brokers,” said Paula Hanson, AVP of Benefit Technology Solutions at Reliance Standard. “Through partnership with Employee Navigator, we’ve been able to find ways to leverage the technology in a way that just makes it easier for our mutual clients.”
The unique integration uses Employee Navigator technology as a single source for billing and claim eligibility verification, eliminating the need for any additional reconciliation with a carrier system. In addition, Reliance Standard expects to remove the burden of mapping and testing of files for brokers during the onboarding process.
“Our goal is to make insurance more accessible to employees across the country and to make administering those benefits easier for brokers and HR. We believe Reliance Standard is an important piece of that strategy moving forward,” said Employee Navigator CEO, George Reese. “Given Reliance Standard’s history and position in the market, we believe our customers will be well served with this new partnership.”
