MONITOR
The AIM system delivers tools that provide a comprehensive benefits management and monitoring system customized to meet your school district’s needs. The system is secure, HIPAA compliant, easy to use, and accessible anytime, anywhere. You only need a web browser and Internet connectivity to use it -- no new staff or new equipment is required!
And it works with (interfaces to) your exiting carriers. This means that you and your employees only have to work with one system for all of your benefits needs.
While several other companies claim to manage benefits eligibility, we go two steps farther than most by:
- Custom tailoring the system to conform to your specific eligibility rules and policies, and
- Offering financial reconciliation tools to insure that the money you pay for benefits ties exactly to the benefits your employees receive.
The rules-based (or policy-driven) design of the AIM system allows you and your broker to safely, securely and simply manage tasks that often don’t get done due to lack of resources or, even with adequate resources, get handled inconsistently and with expensive errors. When benefits were a relatively minor cost for your school district, the complexity and high transactional volume could be treated far more casually than today’s double-digit share of the budget benefits now consume.
Automation of benefit management without a policy-driven system often treats the symptom without actually curing the disease: these systems take “un-scrubbed” information and institutionalize its usage -- errors and all. Worse, the systems do not enforce consistent financial policy or eligibility rules -- speeding up the error creation cycle and, in many cases, weakening those cross-check points that existed when work was done manually.
Sadly, the direct costs of these errors -- often in excess of 7% of the total amount being spent on benefits -- only partially reflect the extent of the problem. Allowing enrollment in programs for which an individual is not eligible can lead to employer liability for claims and other compliance-related penalties.
