BENEFIT PARTNERS INSURANCE GROUP & ENROLLMENT SERVICES
Corporate office located
in Greenville, MS Announce New Internet Venture
OUR-HR.net
Benefit Partners to
Expand Employee Benefit Services On-Line
Greenville, MS
– BENEFIT PARTNERS INSURANCE GROUP & ENROLLMENT SERVICES
has entered an online venture to establish OUR-HR.net, an on-line employee
benefit services website. The company primary website is www.b-part.com.
The new site, OUR-HR.net,
is an effective communication tool that efficiently serves employees’
plan information needs, while minimizing administrative costs and will
allow Companies to post their employee benefits online & allow individuals
to make employee benefit elections on the internet. It will also provide
up-to-date resource material about the details and status of individual
plans throughout the year. Employees will have access to reviews of their
current plan and print forms such as COBRA, Benefits Enrollment, Change
in Family Status, and 401K election forms for employees and link to provider
networks.
"OUR-HR.net represents
the company’s interest in expanding employee benefit services to
the world wide web with the ability to enroll nationwide", said T.
Darry Davis, president of BENEFIT PARTNERS. “We recognize that providing
on-line service to our clients is an industry priority. Through this venture,
we can provide the efficiency and accessibility that employees deserve".
“OUR-HR.net will
reduce paper work and administrative employee hours for employers,”
Davis continued. “Human Resource Departments can respond immediately
to employee questions or enrollment requests. Employees will recognize
that their company has taken the initiative to provide them with the resources
they need to maximize their benefit plan. All of this will be accomplished
without the typical delay caused by processing numerous forms.”
BENEFIT PARTNERS began
the development of its on-line enrollment site in 2000. The site is designed
to educate employees about their benefit options and has the means to
actually enroll potential participants in a plan.
“For many years
now we've been successful in educating employees about their benefits
with our traditional method (one-on-one) and we will continue and by no
means is this designed to replace it”, said Davis. “However,
this site has outsourcing and administrative capabilities necessary to
enroll individuals 24/7 at home on on the road. Combining our traditional
enrollment method and our new OUR-HR.net website, we feel, this will make
us more efficient in the communication of employee benefits. Depending
on the OPTION elected by the employer, employees can explore the benefits
offered to them, review their current benefits and, if necessary, enroll
online" Davis continued.
