Command Health

Command Health, had been with a national PEO for five years. Using a PEO was already a great business model for them because of their decentralized operation with employees in 30 states.

When PEO Choice contacted Cynthia Morgan, Director of Finance about their recent health insurance renewal, her immediate response was “we had a 3.5% increase so I think we’ll just stay put”. After digging a little further, PEO Choice realized they had exorbitant costs and felt like they had better options.

PEO Choice based on years of experience in employee benefits made a prediction that we could find $150,000 - $200,000 in annual savings on health insurance alone. We found $198,000 but not until after several months process of getting other PEOs comfortable with Command Health’s risk profile.

Command Health was on the verge of large growth due to new technology their competitors didn’t have that would set them apart. With imminent growth, they knew they had to make their employee benefits offering more competitive to find and retain the best talent possible.

Through PEO Choice’s guidance, an extensive survey was done with all of their employees about how they felt about the current benefits offering by their employer and under what circumstances would they participate. Once these results were revealed to the competing PEOs, we were able to get a national PEO to review with their group health insurance carrier an approval to move forward.

The end result was substantial savings and a new trajectory for Command Health to keep current employee turnover low and attract new employees for their anticipated growth.

Testimonial from Cynthia Morgan, Director of Finance

"We are very happy with the result that Scott Smith at PEO Choice arranged for us.  We were in a difficult situation with our then PEO both for service levels and costs.  Scott was able to present multiple options for us and negotiated the best pricing for both administrative fees and benefits in spite of a history of low participation and years-ago loss runs.  We're now able to offer a choice of affordable and better plans to our employees at about half the cost to the employee. And the service level at the new PEO is outstanding, which saves time/money for our payroll staff.  Scott was diligent during the implementation phase and helped resolve several issues at the beginning.  We highly recommend using PEO Choice!"
