Survival Guide
We develop an annual compliance calendar and checklist! This “survival guide” helps companies review and plan out necessary actions. While there is no cookie cutter compliance plan, this tool can help you customize a compliance approach and timeline.

Webinars & Workshops

We host regular compliance webinars, including an annual HIPAA training presented in conjunction with our attorneys, legal partners and other community leaders. Local workshops help educate our clients on various topics of interest and areas of focus within the insurance industry and legal community. Join the conversation by listening to our library of past compliance-related webinars.

Our Compliance Check blogs and emails inform you about major changes in employee benefits law. We take special care to simplify complicated legal guidance into easy to follow alerts that typically include executive summaries and employer action items.

When you become our client, you’ll have access to a collection of compliance-specific content partners, tools, briefs, employee communications, sample policies and more—the resources that help keep you informed.

Compliance Audits

We customize a dashboard experience for our clients that notifies them of action items and deadlines and provides consistent documentation of internal compliance processes. This service helps prepare an employer for a potential audit by keeping track of DOL required documents and other information.
