Groundbreaking initiative combines benefits technology with carrier integrations to modernize experience for employees and HR teams

ORLANDO, Fla. – April 8, 2020 – PlanSource, a leading provider of benefits software, today shared details about the ongoing expansion of PlanSource Boost, its partner program designed to elevate today’s benefits experience.

Recognizing that the benefits industry is fraught with complexities and challenges, PlanSource created the Boost program to alleviate the everyday trials that customers face. PlanSource Boost streamlines all aspects of benefits administration, from the manual, time-consuming processes that bog down HR teams to counterintuitive navigation and disconnects that frustrate and confuse employees, who are otherwise accustomed to the consumer-like ease of online shopping. By partnering directly with insurance carriers, PlanSource Boost offers real-time API integrations, engaging employee shopping experiences and time-saving services.

“PlanSource continues to be a forward thinker in the benefits technology industry and innovate the way we do business with carriers, we are thrilled to see the excitement and the advancement with cutting-edge integrations” shares Mark Rieder, Head of Innovation at NFP.

Among those carriers participating in PlanSource Boost are Aflac, Allstate Benefits, Cigna, Guardian Life, Lincoln Financial Group, MetLife, Mutual of Omaha, Prudential, The Hartford, The Standard, Unum and Voya Financial.

Bradley Taylor, EVP, Strategic Partnerships at PlanSource shared, “We’re continuing to grow PlanSource Boost, bringing the industry’s leading insurance carriers into our technology-driven way of changing the benefits administration game entirely. This ongoing transformation includes the automated configuration of benefit plans, streamlined enrollment, consolidated self-billing and more. It’s an exciting development for the benefits space and one that PlanSource is thrilled to spearhead.”

As it stands, when employers select one or more benefits products from a participating Boost carrier, they also receive preferred pricing on the PlanSource technology, simplified self-billing, an optimized employee shopping experience and modern API integrations when available. The overall result of the approach is an enhanced experience that saves HR teams countless hours spent on administrative tasks and improves employee outcomes through access to the educational materials, tips, and resources needed to select the right benefits.
