Vision coverage consistently ranks among the most appreciated benefits employees receive. It's visible, affordable, and actually used, unlike some benefits that sit forgotten until renewal season.

Humana Vision PLUS gives employees:
• $0 eye exams at PLUS providers.
• Extra $50 frame allowance on top of the standard plan.
• Contact lens coverage.
• Access to premium lens enhancements.
• A large network of 175,000+ access points nationwide.
• Popular retailers like LensCrafters, Pearle Vision, Target Optical, Walmart, and Sam’s Club.

Vision benefits don't have to be complicated. Humana Vision PLUS keeps it simple with good access, real savings, and a network that employees already know. Get the details https://ow.ly/iBBr50Z8mHZ

Vision coverage only feels valuable when employees can actually afford to use it. Out-of-pocket costs have a way of turning good benefits into benefits people skip.

Humana Vision PLUS is designed to keep those costs low. Members who visit PLUS providers get:

• $0 annual eye exams at designated PLUS providers.
• An extra $50 frame allowance on top of the standard benefit.
• Coverage for contact lens fittings and materials.
• Access to advanced lens options like anti-reflective and photochromic lenses.
• Popular retailers like LensCrafters, Target Optical, Walmart, Pearle Vision, and Sam's Club.

Lower out-of-pocket costs mean higher utilization. And higher utilization means your groups feel the value of what you sold them. Learn more https://ow.ly/iBBr50Z8mHZ

Your clients are feeling the pressure of rising health plan costs. You already know that. The harder question is: what are you doing about it?

The answer starts with knowing the market better than anyone else. Claremont's Q3 reports make that easier:

• See the 20 lowest cost medical plan options statewide, broken down by rating region and all four metal tiers.
• Compare top-selling PPO plans from three major carriers on one color-coded report.
• Spot where your clients are overpaying and where they have better options waiting.

The brokers who hold onto clients through tough renewal seasons are the ones who show up with solutions. These tools help you do that without burning half your week on research.

Both reports are updated quarterly, so you always have current data.

One number that can change the whole conversation: zero.

HealthNet, Inc. is currently the only carrier in the California small group market offering $0 deductibles on all HMO plans. When you're sitting across from a small business owner who is tired of employees complaining about out-of-pocket costs, that number tends to resonate.
Here's what makes Health Net's HMO lineup worth quoting:

• $0 deductibles across all HMO plans — no other carrier matches this.
• Broad statewide network access, including all Sutter facilities.
• Competitive pricing that holds up against Anthem and Blue Shield.
• Five years of rate stability to help clients plan ahead.

Sometimes the simplest benefits are the most powerful ones. Lead with $0, then let the rest of the package do the talking https://ow.ly/I5G950Z1t7R

Not all telehealth is created equal, and the difference matters to your clients.

Starting in January 2026, Blue Shield of California replaced Teladoc and Nurse Help 24/7 with Virtual Blue for the renewal of small-group off-exchange PPO plans. Here's what members now get:

• Same-day primary care appointments with a personal physician.
• Specialty care across 20 specialties: no referral needed, confirmed within 3 days.
• Behavioral health coverage, including unlimited talk therapy for members ages 3 and up.
• Doctors, nurses, and health coaches available 24/7.
• Zero co-pay on virtual visits (subject to deductible for HDHPs).
