Retiree Health 101
In today's economy, medical inflation isn't over yet, and it's putting pressure on retiree medical plans. Just when your administrative resources may be shrinking, your retirement population continues to expand. How can you juggle multiple plans, different billing options and claims services that may not be in your budget? Good question.
There are a lot of solutions out there. Of these, an employer-sponsored Group Retiree Insurance Plan (GRIP), offered through The Hartford, can be an excellent choice for a lot of reasons.
Be good to your retirees and your budget.
By electing GRIP, you can accomplish three important goals:
- Take retirees out of the active medical plan, improving the active plan experience.
- Fulfill your obligation to retirees.
- Integrate with Medicare, taking advantage of Medicare's cost-containment measures.
