Ready to save on healthcare costs with dependent eligibility verification, but concerned about disrupting your people? We’re here to help.
With the right approach, you can save significant health plan dollars and make the process simple and unintimidating for your people. Here are some quick tips for simplifying your dependent audits.
With any change, communication is key, especially when it involves information that might seem personal to employees. For a dependent audit, start communicating early and explain why it is happening and how each health plan participant benefits.
The sooner your people know of this initiative and how it benefits them, the easier the process will be and the more engaged they will feel.
The overall communication campaign should use easy, straightforward language and consider how certain employee populations are reached, how often and with what information.

People are accustomed to using technology in all aspects of their life. A tech-forward approach to dependent verification makes each step of the process as simple and efficient as possible while providing a convenient means for your people to submit documentation and stay informed of their status. Be sure to have multiple ways to communicate with your people—including emails and text message alerts, or paper letters for those that prefer it.
