Strategic Consulting

Our strategic consulting process always begins the same way; with getting to know you, your business, and your workforce. Once we understand what’s already working for you and where you’re struggling, we will help you develop a short and long term strategy to proactively manage your costs while providing a program that meets the needs of your employees. As a result, a competitive benefits package will allow you to recruit and retain top performers.

Compliance

JGS will help you design an effective ACA compliance and reporting strategy, prepare for a compliance audit, and minimize risk exposure. We act as an extension of your HR department to offer guidance and expertise, ensuring that your benefits management strategy is working. Our team will verify that your company is entirely compliant with ERISA, the ACA and other federal and state requirements, and your company is meeting all disclosure and filing deadlines. We’ll also help you devise and implement a system of checks and balances to make sure you continue to meet requirements and can adapt to legislative updates in a timely fashion.

Products and services that get your compliance strategy on the right track:

  • ACA compliance: risk exposure audit, reporting calendar and checklist
  • Sample notices & templates for COBRA, HIPAA, and more
  • Eligibility audits to determine which hourly employees meet federal “full-time” status requirements and qualify for benefits
  • Strategic & adaptable benefit management and compliance review plans designed to evolve alongside your business, minimize risk exposure and keep you in compliance with ERISA, DOL, HHS, and IRS regulations for years to come
