Transportation Company with 300+ employees
Implementing the SolV strategy delivered the most significant year-over-year cost reduction in the employer’s history. Over the course of 19 years with their previous carrier, they experienced rate increases in all but one year—making SolV’s outcome truly unprecedented.
This employer was experiencing double digit increases year over year to their employee beneifts expenses, some as high as 20%. Knowing this was unsustainable, the plan sponsor started looking for other alternatives and began working with SolV.
What Clients Are Saying
“Timely, Pragmatic, and Collaborative”
The team at SolV listened, brought creative solutions, and has the depth of understanding we require. They’re timely, pragmatic and collaborative. We are typically very demanding of our business partners and SolV has impressed us and exceeds our standards. We are exceptionally pleased because they delivered on their promises. We look forward to working with them for a long time to come and can wholeheartedly endorse their services for other firms seeking a fresh, competent, caring Benefits Partner.
“Reduced Our Healthcare Spend by 23%”
Our company has been self-funded for over 20 years and we felt confident we were doing all we could to keep [healthcare] costs in check. The SolV team jumped in and provided a very thorough analysis and projected savings. They did a phenomenal job of implementing the recommended program and proved an outstanding and very valuable partner to our team throughout the year. They’ve surpassed our expectations, reduced our spend by 23% with richer plan designs, enhanced employee experience, and valuable support. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to improve the value of their benefits program.
“Significantly Surpassed OUR
Best Expectations”It has now been 3 years since we chose SolV as our [Employee Benefits] strategic partner and I can attest to the fact that they are the real deal! Their results have significantly surpassed our best expectations. They work each renewal as if they’re earning our business for the first time, and always deliver timely and proactive service. I’ve worked with many brokers/consultants and can say without reservation that SolV is the best I’ve ever worked with. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to take their benefits plan to the next level.
“We achieved savings of 20% (nearly $400K) all while reducing the employee deductibles.”
Prior to partnering with SolV, our health insurance costs increased around 9.3% every year and every year we were faced with the difficult decision of increasing contributions, increasing deductibles, or buying cheaper plans to lower the premium cost. Neither of which benefited the employees and their families. The SolV team thoughtfully crafted a strategy that aligned with our company’s specific goals and objectives, which lowered the deductible for employees, with a more modest 5% cost increase. But in the first year of working with SolV, we achieved savings of 20% (nearly $400K) all while reducing the employee deductibles.
“They reduced our benefits spend by a whopping 23%.”
In the end, the SolV team surpassed our best expectations. They reduced our benefits spend by a whopping 23%, provided richer plan designs, enhanced our employee experience, and provided valuable administrative support to our HR team. They are the real deal, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to improve the value of your benefits program!
“They have implemented creative strategies/interventions that are having a significant positive effect on driving down our costs!”
We are six months into our partnership with SolV and I can tell you that our results are significantly better than remaining with the fully insured Blue Cross plan. Among other things, they have implemented creative strategies/interventions that are having a significant positive effect on driving down our costs! We now believe we have a strategy to not only bend the cost curve, but one that allows us the opportunity to provide richer benefits to our employees.
“They consistently rise to the challenges with expertise and the human touch.”
We know that the benefits consulting landscape is highly competitive and crowded with sales pros who promise the moon and stars but fall short after the sale is made. Not so with our partners at SolV. They consistently rise to the challenges with expertise and the human touch that is missing in so many areas of modern business. On those occasions when things do not go quite right, we know we can count on them to take accountability and follow through until an issue is resolved.
