How is the Health & Voluntary Benefits Association Different?
Unlike other organizations who solely focus on either the Agent/Broker community, Insurance Carriers, or the Human Resource and Benefits community; the HVBA is committed to engaging all stakeholders within the corporate healthcare and employee benefits ecosystem. The HVBA bridges the gap between Employers and their Benefits team, often referred to as the Healthcare/Benefit Sponsors or Buyers; the Carriers and Service Providers; as well as the essential “Advisors,” the Agents, Brokers and Consultants that counsel and guide Plan Sponsors into making the best choice for their workforce.
Why was the Health & Voluntary Benefits Association Created?
The Health & Voluntary Benefits Association was created to promote and protect the interests of the multi-billion dollar, multi-million participant industry. The HVBA was also founded as an employer and affinity group coalition. Many employers and affinity groups do not know where to turn to find out what are the best Voluntary Benefits products to offer their employees, who the best Voluntary Benefits insurance companies are, or who are the best enrollment firms or technology firms. Many employers and affinity groups are looking for new innovative products and new ways to improve education, enrollment and participation in Voluntary Benefits. The Health & Voluntary Benefits Association will work to accomplish these goals on behalf of our employer and affinity group members.
