Comprehensive Benefits Consulting
Touchstone uses a holistic approach to consulting by treating all aspects of employee benefits from the following perspectives:
Design – The design of your plan is what employees appreciate most, and it has the greatest impact on your overall plan cost; a well-designed plan can reduce administrative complexity. Touchstone has the expertise necessary to ensure your plan design is cost-effective and delivers the value necessary to attract and retain employees.
Financing – Whether you run a business or a Multiemployer fund, financial strategies are crucial to the success of your benefits plan. Our actuaries and consultants specialize in assuring that your programs:
- meet governmental and accounting requirements
- are tax-effective for both your organization and your employees
- are structured for both short and long term success.
Administration – With ever increasing government rules and regulations, plan administration has become more and more complicated. We will provide the necessary level of support required to run your program smoothly and efficiently.
Communications – No matter how good your program is, without effective communications its value can be compromised. With our help, your communications will be compliant and effective, whether in hard copy or electronically.
While the importance of each of these categories varies from program to program, only a solid foundation in all four categories assures the success of the entire benefits program. We provide comprehensive solutions that will coordinate all four of these categories.
