Slash Healthcare Insurance & Compensation Expenses
without Cutting Benefits or Heads

If you have employees and your company pays any portion of their health insurance expenses, this month's seminar is a must!
 
Health insurance costs continue to skyrocket, yet most businesses roll over and play dead - watching expenses climb and profits fall. Or they pass the costs along to employees, contributing to high turnover and low morale.
 
There is a better way! Get control of your expenses without reducing benefits or cutting headcount.
 
This is absolutely NOT a sales pitch for health insurance! HRAs and the other tools you'll learn about are critical strategies for businesses - especially in these tough economic conditions.

We'll walk you through the details of HRAs including how & why they work, tax treatment, implementation and some real-life case studies with "before" and "after" costs!

• Learn about HRA accounts, and why these can save you thousands per year (Already have an HRA? You’ll still learn innovative ways to maximize your savings)
• Improve employee benefits while reducing costs
• Use your benefits plan to teach business literacy to your employees
• Use a "high involvement planning" approach to making benefits decisions
• A unique approach to planning your company's overall compensation expenses that will reduce headaches and costs
