My name is Gwen Jacob and I’m the employee benefits solution architect here at Patra.

When we think about the eligibility process it really was a manual process. Agencies were going into carrier websites and manually entering information taking paper applications, entering those paper applications or sending them via email.

Case build really is a critical part of the eligibility process just simply because we want to make sure that the plans are communicated properly to the employees, we want to make sure that the rates that are entered are accurate, and we also want to make sure that all of the benefit plans that are entered are compliant so that way when the employers are reviewing the information they know that what they’re reviewing is correct.

Moving into a platform like an employee navigator really has been beneficial for companies and agencies just simply because it removes a lot of the risk and it does provide a sense of security for employees whenever they’re able get access to care because their information has been entered correctly.

For over twenty years, Patra has been a leader in tech enabled insurance outsourcing services. Working with an outsourcing company you have the benefit of increased efficiency and accuracy. We work off of standard operating procedures and because we do that it’s repetitive tasks we understand how to do it and we don’t expect you to be experts at it.

Once benefits are enrolled into a benefits administration platform there really are a lot of safeguards that they’ll find within the system. For instance, there’s automated validation checks, there’s a reduction in manual data entry, there are quality control measures that are standardized within the system, as well as audit maintenance. We’re able to pull reporting and we’re able to do audits and reconciliation based upon the information that’s entered into the system.

The biggest benefit to outsourcing for agencies is simply scalability. They really don’t have the resources on their team to complete these case builds whenever it comes to growth and peak seasonality. Being able to lean into something like an outsourcing company to get that done within a certain period of time and just knowing that it’s done correctly is super important especially in those peak seasons.

In addition to scalability you have increased accuracy because you have a team that is doing this continuously day after day they know the steps and they know the ins and outs of the system. You also will find that it’s going to be a complete time saver and cost efficient for you.

For anyone that’s ever tried to build a case within a BenAdmin platform they know it’s time consuming so just being able to save your team time is worth so much money in itself and it allows your team members to get away from their desk and really focus on what matters which is client relationships.
