SIC (US 1987) :
The first step for CGR in any client situation consists of an introductory meeting. This meeting is often attended by one or more CGR representatives along with an organization's primary human resource personnel. At this meeting probing questions are asked to identify such things as company size, locations, ownership structure, existing employee benefit plans, current carriers and renewal dates. In addition, problem areas are discussed, as well as the ongoing goals and objectives of the organization with respect to their employee benefits. Also, the identification of any existing programs specific to executives will be noted.
The second step in the process is the first of two commitments we ask from an initial client prospect. As a follow up to the introductory meeting, CGR will prepare a check list of information that we deem necessary to conduct an analysis of your existing programs. We ask that your best effort be made to make available the information being requested. Our analysis will include, but is not limited to the following:
Plan Design - Effective plan design promotes employee satisfaction while positioning the organization to take advantage of, or position for, current and future changes due to corporate size, industry trend, legislative changes (including HIPPA, COBRA and FMLA) and expenses. Today more and more organizations are asking employees to share the cost of benefits. In these instances, plan design is critical. Where possible, multiple offerings should be explored to address varying needs among employees. Tax favored programs under Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code will be evaluated where appropriate.
Proposals - Once the various benefit plans to be reviewed are identified, CGR will draw upon our insurance carrier knowledge and relationships to explore alternatives. Where appropriate CGR will review different funding methods. Whether a particular benefit should be self-funded, fully insured or some combination of the two. Multiple carriers will be asked to submit proposals for each benefit under review. In many instances, they will be asked to quote on more than one design of a particular benefit. Varying markets will be analyzed such as insurance companies and third party administrators. Carrier products will be reviewed such as Traditional, Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO), Point of Service (POS) and Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO) for group health plans options.
Presentation - The second of the two commitments we ask of an initial client prospect is their time to allow us to present our analysis and their faithful consideration of the presentation. Upon the receipt of numerous quotes from various providers for each benefit, CGR will summarize the quotes, in spreadsheet form, for ease of presentation and review. Since it is not always possible to present an "apples to apples" comparison, the significant plan design characteristics for each proposal will be highlighted for review. Usually, at this point in the process it becomes evident that the philosophy of CGR is, not only to sell, but to educate our prospects on the alternatives available.
