In this episode, we’re breaking down the various ways healthcare and benefits play an important role in providing for employees and how companies can get them without breaking the bank with Matthew Cate of Cobbs Allen, a national independent insurance agency focused on risk management in niche practice groups. Cobbs Allen specializes in providing exceptional service in traditional commercial insurance, employee benefits, alternative risk financing, and structured solutions. 

Here we explore: 

  • The impact healthcare has on employee retention and productivity 
  • Which benefits are the most important to employees in today’s workforce 
  • The prominent factors that affect healthcare rates, like large claims and pharmaceutical policies 
  • How PEOs provide flexibility in meeting a broad range of employee needs and increased capacity to navigate the intricacies of providing great health insurance 
  • Employees value flexibility with healthcare choices and work options, and PEOs can help companies offer quality, affordable healthcare and manage different work arrangements to improve their competitive advantage 
  • How do people in today’s workforce rank the different benefits available to them and how supplemental benefits, like life insurance, also make a huge difference and provide people with chronic issues something they could not find otherwise  
  • The importance of employees feeling heard, and the steps companies can take to do so because there’s so much risk and expense to turnover 
  • What a qualified partner can offer in terms of helping companies provide the best healthcare coverage without worrying about whether they qualify for coverage and keeping up with timelines and regulations
