Media Mention

Benefits brokerage Nava Benefits acquired Nielsen Benefits Group, a benefits consulting firm, in an effort to bring an alternative brokerage model to more midsize employers, lower the cost of healthcare and increase employee engagement in the right benefits.

The benefits world isn't always quick to embrace new technology tools, but according to adviser Ed Ligonde, that's to the detriment of benefits professionals everywhere — and their clients. In July, Ligonde's previous brokerage Nielsen Benefits Group was acquired by Nava Benefits, a tech-powered brokerage. The newly expanded organization is now focused on delivering streamlined, efficient employee benefits support with a human touch to midsize employers across the country.

By making health benefits more affordable for employees and ensuring there is time to explore all offerings, one midsize employer saw increased engagement during open enrollment season.

True or false: You can't be creative with your healthcare offerings.

Employee benefits brokerage Nava Benefits launched a free search engine earlier this year, empowering HR teams to learn and connect with over 600 vendors across 28 benefit categories. So, instead of having to go through a benefits broker to know what's on the market, HR teams can find the answers themselves — and it seems many are looking for answers in the same six benefit categories.
