Not everything employers hear about benefits is true.

We’re breaking down a few common benefits myths — from small business offerings to switching brokers — and sharing a clearer perspective.

An independent benefits broker is not tied to one carrier — which means your options are not limited to one company’s portfolio.
Corporate Coverage works with employers to explore the full market, compare coverage, costs and networks, and recommend benefits strategies based on your business needs. From plan selection to year-round guidance, our goal is to help you make informed decisions with confidence.

A strong benefits strategy doesn’t happen once a year.

Employers need support with more than renewal — from compliance reminders and carrier updates to employee questions, plan communication and day-to-day guidance.

Corporate Coverage helps businesses stay informed, organized and supported year-round, so benefits feel less reactive and more manageable.

If your current benefits support only shows up at renewal, it may be time for a different approach.

Let’s talk about what year-round benefits support could look like for your team.

Saturday is World Mental Health Day, and it’s a meaningful reminder that employee benefits can support more than physical health.

As employers prepare for open enrollment, now is a good time to remind employees about the mental health resources they may already have access to — such as an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), behavioral health coverage, virtual counseling options or other support services included in their plan.

Sometimes the most helpful message is simply making employees aware of what’s already available to them.
If you’re not sure how to communicate your mental health benefits clearly to employees, we’re here to help.

October is Health Literacy Month — a great reminder that benefits communication should be clear, simple and easy to understand.
As open enrollment approaches, employees are often asked to make important decisions using terms they may not fully understand. Breaking down the basics — like deductibles, copays, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximums and provider networks — can help employees feel more confident when reviewing their options.

CareFirst requires prior authorization for certain diagnostic services and treatments, including MRIs.
For members receiving care inside the CareFirst service area of Maryland, D.C. and Northern Virginia, in-network providers are generally responsible for obtaining required prior authorizations before services are provided.
Outside the CareFirst service area, the responsibility may fall to the member.
Because prior authorizations are not issued retroactively, employees should confirm requirements with both their provider and CareFirst before scheduling services.

The No Surprises Act was designed to help protect individuals from unexpected medical bills and improve transparency in health care costs.

For employers, this is a good reminder to make sure your health plan partners, carriers and TPAs are supporting key requirements, including balance billing protections, provider directory accuracy, ID card transparency and required notices.
Even when vendors handle the details, employers should understand what applies to their plans.

Employers that offer prescription drug coverage may need to provide Medicare Part D creditable coverage notices to Medicare-eligible employees and dependents by October 15, 2026.

This notice helps individuals understand whether their employer-sponsored prescription drug coverage is considered creditable compared to Medicare Part D.

Most employers assume they are locked in with their benefits broker until renewal season comes around. In practice, that is not always the case.

A Broker of Record change can happen outside of renewal. So if your broker went quiet after the plan was sold, if questions sit unanswered for days, or if no one has walked you through your market options in a few years, you may have more flexibility than you think.

We work with small and mid-sized employers across Maryland, DC, Virginia, Pennsylvania and Delaware. As independent brokers, we are not tied to one carrier, so we can quote the full market and explain what we find in plain language. And we answer the phone.

If you have been waiting for renewal to have that conversation, it does not have to wait. If you'd like a second opinion on your current plan, reach out. No pressure — just a conversation.

The No Surprises Act was designed to help protect patients from unexpected out-of-network medical bills, but the independent dispute resolution process continues to raise questions for employers, health plans, providers, and policymakers.

Recent reporting highlights ongoing debate around how IDR decisions may affect employer-sponsored health plans and overall healthcare costs. For employers, it’s another reminder that benefits strategy is not just about plan selection — it’s about staying informed as healthcare rules, costs, and payment systems continue to evolve.

Need help understanding how healthcare cost trends may affect your plan? Reach out to your broker or benefits advisor.
