  Menuflex™ for Small Employer Groups

Introduction:

Employers wishing to offer their employees greater flexibility of personal choice regarding their benefit coverage, while controlling corporate costs today and in the future, have several Menuflex™ Benefits Programs to choose from in lieu of a traditional group program.

Why not a traditional Group Program?
Group Insurers typically require 100% of all full-time staff in a group of under ten employees to participate initially and at all times in the future, and the employer to contribute at least 50% of the monthly cost.

In many small groups, there are always one or two employees who do not want the coverage, or cannot afford the cost even at 50%.

But Menu
flex™ Programs offer a very viable alternative because:

  • there are no participation requirements from the group, and participation is voluntary,
     
  • employer contributions are optional. For example, our Basic & PLUS programs can be implemented on a fully employee-paid basis, while our MDSA program is designed around a defined employer contribution,
     
  • participants can pick the coverage that best meets their need and ablility to afford,
     
  • there is no administration involvement for the employer other than distributing the Program flyers and Application Forms / Health Declarations
     
  • there are no membership fees & no medicals.

So, what different Menuflex™ Programs are available to employer groups? Well, there are five different Health & Dental Programs, a Disability Insurance Program and even an Expatriate Program for employers who send staff to work abroad. Scroll down to find out more...

Menuflex ™ MDSA (Medical & Dental Spending Account)
The new MDSA Program incorporates a "Medical & Dental Spending Account", enabling employers and self-employed individuals to pre-determine and "freeze" their health and dental costs and avoid significant unnual cost increases due to "inflationary trend factors" imposed by insurers in the annual renewal. Best of all, with an MDSA Program, you'll have more flexibility and personal choice (in terms of what expenses can be claimed and who can be covered), along with much broader basic health & dental coverage.
