How Healthy is your Medical-Wellness Benefits Program? - We'll know next month!!

Today's meeting was cancelled because of road conditions caused by the winter storm. We will address this topic next month with speakers from B&H Associates. If you have a specific issue you would like the speakers to address next month, then please send it to Paul at pogier@lssmo.org.

How Healthy is Your Medical-Wellness Benefits Program? - Topic for January 27, 2009

Uncertain about how to offer medical continuation correctly? Stressed by the medical insurance bidding process? Unaware that waiting periods and eligibility requirements are actually enforced by medical insurers? Searching for ways to save money on health insurance expense?

If these and other questions have your blood pressure rising, then start off the New Year with a toast to good health by bringing the best practices, ideas, questions, or failings of your nfp's medical benefits or wellness programs to our next meeting, January 27, 2009. The January meeting will be the first of a two-part series on the medical/wellness topic, and will involve a general discussion of health-wellness benefit best practices and issues. So please come ready to share your ideas, concerns, and questions, and we'll do our collective best to provide resolutions. We'll reserve all the unanswered items for the second meeting, February 24, when Bill and Barb Heftel of B&H Associates, a benefit consulting firm, will lend their expert advise and facilitation to what ails us. B&H is associated with MRCT/Benefits Plus, a St. Louis based benefits consulting firm.
