Already offering health insurance?

Here's what you need to know

If you already offer health insurance to your employees but want to take advantage of our partnership with Allstate Health Solutions, you can switch your broker through a “broker of record” change so long as your carrier is supported. The process is simple and can bring meaningful benefits. Here’s what you need to know about a broker of record change:

  • No Change in Costs or Coverage: Switching to Allstate Health Solutions as the broker of record doesn't affect your plan costs or coverage since you’re keeping the same plan. You and your team will continue to pay the same premiums and access the same benefits, so long as the carrier is supported. Also note, there's no gap in coverage and you can start this process at any time of the year.
  • Automated Deductions: By connecting your existing plan to Allstate Health Solutions through QuickBooks, you can benefit from automated deductions within your payroll. This eliminates the need to update employee deduction amounts in QuickBooks and ensures accuracy in payroll management. Additionally, you can add supplemental coverage, such as vision and dental, when it suits your needs.
  • Dedicated Support: During the enrollment season, you can work with a dedicated agent from Allstate Health Solutions to review your current plan and determine if there are better coverage options for your business.

To connect your existing plan to Allstate Health Solutions:

  1. Go to Payroll, then select Benefits.
  2. Select Connect existing plan.
  3. Provide the info requested and electronically sign the letter to being the broker of record change.

Once the letter is submitted, the carrier will assign Allstate Health Solutions as your new broker. This process usually takes a few weeks.
