Hopkinton, Mass. — October 22, 2019 — PrismHR, the leading HR technology software powering payroll, benefits and HR for small and medium-sized businesses across the U.S., today announced that industry leading voluntary benefits from Aflac are now available through PrismHR’s Insurance Alliance to the company’s HRO Partner network.
Aflac customized accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity and BenExtend plans are being delivered to PrismHR’s network of HR service providers through Alterity Group, a leading advisory firm. PrismHR’s HR service provider partners can enjoy access to lower, customized state-based group rates and will not be subject to underwriting based on size or industry makeup. Through the buying power of PrismHR’s Insurance Alliance, HR service providers can now take advantage of benefits including guaranteed issue coverage, waiver of pre-existing conditions limitations, no participating requirements and no-cost EDI file transfer to Aflac.
“Interest in voluntary benefits continues to grow among employers and their employees. However, implementing and administering these benefits can sometimes be a challenge for HROs and their clients,” says Sharla St. Rose, Alterity’s Vice President of Voluntary Benefits. “The PrismHR and Aflac partnership, managed by Alterity, will not only offer employees best in class benefits, it will also provide for a more streamlined administrative experience.”
