Medical Plan Design Surcharge
More and more employers are requiring that individuals pay a penalty or surcharge for their unhealthy behaviors. BCI’s wholly-owned enrollment system allows employers to capture employee information by adding custom “snap-in” pages. The “snap-in” pages are seamlessly integrated with the enrollment system so surcharges are automatically applied during enrollment.
We create "snap-in" pages for the following:
- Tobacco surcharges
- Wellness surcharges
- Weight-loss/diet surcharges
- Biomed surcharges
- Health risk assessment surcharges
- Dependent medical coverage surcharges
"We have a substantial investment in our UltiPro benefits enrollment module. In addition to educating employees about our core benefits, BCI also helps employees navigate our system to complete our annual open enrollment. We have a good mix of voluntary benefits – some that help employees with medical expenses not covered by our group medical plan, and one that helps employees build a solid financial future. All plans have proven to be a good fit for our demographics. "
