DETAILS: Online decision support tools have long been regarded as a best practice in enabling employees to make more informed benefits enrollment choices. A robust decision support system helps employees to identify the most appropriate health and welfare plan options for their personal needs, medical service usage and financial circumstances. One of the biggest challenges, however, has been driving participation and utilization of these tools. This panel will focus on the value of encouraging employees to use these powerful online tools. Drawing upon the real-life experiences of major sales and marketing company, the presenters will discuss how to drive greater employee participation through a fully automated and integrated incentive-based program. They will share actual results gained by incentive programs, provide insight into the challenges and opportunities they encountered and describe how this practice led to greater employee engagement and decreased costs.
