Key Highlights:
✨ ASHHRA Executive Summit Overview
Bo and Luke start by setting the scene from the ASHHRA Executive Summit in Savannah, Georgia—a unique, intimate gathering of healthcare HR executives and sponsors. The summit fosters in-depth roundtable discussions on the latest in healthcare HR, with a focus on transparency, innovation, and practical solutions.
🤝 Meet Lamont Thurston
Lamont Thurston launched BeneRe in 2018 to tackle the lack of transparency and value in supplemental benefits for employees. His vision was to unbundle traditional models and ensure a significant portion of premiums return to employees if claims don’t materialize.
💡 Understanding Group Captive Insurance
Lamont explains how BeneRe’s group captive insurance model differs from the traditional fully insured model, offering financial transparency and potential premium rebates. This allows companies to reinvest savings back into employee benefit programs.
🎓 Educating HR Professionals
From demystifying complex benefits to providing clear, actionable data, Lamont emphasizes the importance of education in making informed decisions. He highlights the integral role of continuous learning and professional development in HR.
📊 Real-World Impact
With over 150 employers and 1.5 million lives covered, BeneRe rewires millions back to employee benefits. Lamont shares compelling examples of how his company’s approach to supplemental benefits has transformed organizational policies, especially in critical areas like cancer, heart attacks, and accidents.
