About SolV

WhAT PROBLEM DO WE SOLVE?

SolV is an employee benefits consulting firm that provides insurance brokerage and strategic consulting services to employers of all sizes, as they design and execute on their benefit plans.

The problem we solve for our clients is their need for a trusted, objective, transparent advisor who can help them build a world class benefits package for employees at an affordable price. Let’s break that down:

• Trusted – Trust is a prerequisite to doing great work together. You need to be certain that we have your best interests at heart, and we put our money where our mouth is. It starts with full and meaningful disclosure of how we are paid for the work that we do with you. However, it doesn’t end there. Trust is reinforced and reaffirmed every day in our work together.

• Objective – Objectivity is the lifeblood of true advising. If we are biased in our recommendations, our words mean nothing. You can be sure we are disinterested advisors to your benefits strategy, and you can see this by our full compensation disclosure and 100% independent ownership (zero private equity). No vested interests, backroom deals, or secretive relationships. Ever.

• Transparent – Transparency starts with compensation but runs much deeper than that. For your health plan to thrive, we must be transparent about risks, tradeoffs, and our expectations for each other as business partners. Refining a benefits plan is rewarding work that can also be challenging at times. We need to keep the lines of communication open and honest.

• Advisor – Advising requires experience, strategy, and a consultative mindset. That is exactly what our value proposition is. We have cultivated relationships with best-in-breed vendors based not on vested interest but rather on their ability to do good, honest work. We advise you strategically on how you can build a health plan that recruits & retains the very best people.

WHO WE ARE

Scott Kelley and Brittney Bello co-founded SolV at the start of 2016 with the mission to advise on health benefits differently. Health insurance is notorious for backroom deals, undisclosed compensation, and secretive relationships that extract value rather than produce it. Scott and Brittney saw a deep need for competence, integrity, and a commitment to truth in the industry.

SolV is a response to that need. We help employers and their employees fight back against a healthcare system that takes advantage of them at every opportunity. From outrageous hospital bills and improperly priced drugs to unsuitable insurance policies and embedded conflicts of interest, we have seen it all. Our Why is to combat such greed by putting the interests of those we serve above our own. This “why” informs everything we think, say, and do. It is our core value.
