Benefits consultants are increasingly concerned about a trend where larger companies question the value of their services. Mark Cuban recently highlighted this issue, questioning the $20-30 per employee per month cost for benefits management. If consultants aren’t bringing creative solutions to the table and simply accepting annual insurance cost increases, companies might start managing these functions in-house. This shift could mean that only consultants who drive significant value will keep their roles. In a tough economy with shrinking margins, companies are looking for every opportunity to cut costs. How do you see this impacting the future of benefits consulting? Share your insights and experiences! #Medicare #Employeebenefits #Medicarecoverage #HRInnovation
