Through the informative and upbeat 10-minute audio podcast, host and limited benefit expert Susan Nicolai, spokesperson for EssentialCare, offers insight into current trends in the voluntary insurance arena and provides straightforward advice for brokers and human resource leaders. "According to the U. S. Census Bureau, there are almost 45 million Americans who do not have health insurance; yet, the vast majority of workers believe insurance should be provided by their employer," said Nicolai. "This creates an opportunity for brokers and employers to better position themselves to proactively meet their clients' or employees' specific needs and drive their bottom line at the same time. The Essentials offers listeners up-to-date information on limited benefit offerings."
The podcasts can be quickly and easily downloaded anytime and can be shared throughout an organization. Nicolai encourages industry leaders to make listening to The Essentials a collaborative, monthly learning experience for broker or human resource teams to gain insights into new revenue streams, opportunities and insurance tools available.
