The Ansel team worked with a New York-based employer to offer a new supplemental health plan to their employees.
The Challenge
An online clothing retailer based in New York has consistently strived to raise the bar for their customers and employees alike. When it came time to assess their annual health benefits, they recognized the need to offer something better. They sought a new, innovative solution that would help employees manage out-of-pocket costs for themselves and their families. It was essential that any new offering provide comprehensive coverage, a seamless claims process, and accessible support to ensure employees could easily navigate their benefits.
The Solution
Their broker introduced them to Ansel— modern supplemental insurance that covers 13,000+ illnesses and injuries to provide financial protection for employees facing unexpected health issues. He explained how Ansel's ability to offer medical claims integration enables claims data to flow directly from the third-party administrator to Ansel, so employees receive benefits without the need to file a claim. Plus, with dedicated support available for enrollment and claims, the entire process would be seamless. It was clear that adding Ansel would improve their benefits package, and employees would welcome the opportunity for added coverage.
A detailed enrollment plan was rolled out, resulting in 15.4% employee participation in Ansel on a purely voluntary basis.
Keys to the Win
“This employer was excited to provide their team with something new and valuable. Their broker, a strong advocate for Ansel, was able to clearly showcase its benefits, so they were eager to include it in their offerings.” —Jason Clemons, Regional Sales Director, Ansel
Claims integration model makes employees lives easier
Even though we made it easy for members to file claims, we know that sometimes, when dealing with a health issue, filing a claim or worrying about receiving a benefit can be stressful. That’s why we can use medical claims data to determine whether members are eligible for Ansel benefits, and pay claims automatically so members can focus on their recovery.
Wide-ranging coverage that fills in the gaps
Injuries and illnesses come in all shapes and sizes. Ansel is a plan that is built to be used. With over 13,000+ covered conditions across a wide spectrum (Moderate, Severe, and Catastrophic), employees have more reasons to file a claim, whether it’s for a cut with stitches or cancer.
Dedicated support every step of the way
When employees have questions, they should be able to get answers. Ansel’s member services team is there every step of the way to deliver dedicated support from enrollment and plan education to using their Ansel plan at claim time.
