Your PBM gets money back from drug manufacturers. Soon, it will have to tell you where that money goes. 💊

New federal rules are changing how PBMs report rebates, fees, and pricing to employer health plans. Our EVP of Client Retention, Shawn Hughes, breaks down what’s changing, when it takes effect, and what you can do now to be ready.

The catch? Transparency alone doesn’t lower costs. It gives you the leverage to negotiate better.

Here's a clip from Session 1 of our Compliance Playbook Series, where KC Rippstein breaks down a key piece of ACA affordability.

You don't have to test every plan you offer. Just one: the lowest-cost, self-only plan that provides minimum value. No family tiers, no buyout tiers.

Once you know which plan to test, there are three IRS safe harbors to choose from. Getting that part right is what keeps you protected if the IRS comes asking.

Session 2 is coming up Wednesday, October 14th at 12:00 PM EDT, covering the missing notices that turn open enrollment into an audit finding. Link to join in the comment below.

An illness, injury, or surgery can keep you out of work for weeks or months. Your bills don't pause when that happens. 💼

Disability insurance helps replace part of your paycheck when you can't work, so you're not relying only on savings to get by.

During open enrollment, it's worth knowing what your plan actually covers: how much income it replaces, how long you'd wait before payments start, and how long that coverage lasts.

Session 2 of the 2027 BSI Compliance Playbook Series is coming up.

SUED: The Missing Notice That Turns Open Enrollment Into an Audit Finding

A missing SBC, a late COBRA election notice, an outdated SPD. These aren't paperwork technicalities, they're the exact gaps plaintiffs' attorneys and the DOL look for when a participant contests their coverage.

This live, virtual session breaks down the specific compliance checkpoints to hit at each stage of enrollment, so what you've communicated to employees and what your plan documents actually say never drift apart.

Featuring:
- KC Rippstein, Lead Compliance Consultant
- Spencer Felix, Account Director
