Benefits enrollment involves much more than allowing employees to select their benefits. From new hire onboarding and eligibility verification to life events, dependent documentation, and carrier updates, employers must manage numerous processes throughout the year. BAS provides enrollment and benefits administration services designed to bring these activities together through MyEnroll360.

Enrollment Throughout the Employee Lifecycle

BAS supports enrollment beyond annual open enrollment. Through MyEnroll360, employers can manage new hire enrollment, open enrollment, qualifying life events, and ongoing benefit elections in a connected administrative environment.

Eligibility rules and enrollment windows can be incorporated into the enrollment process, while deadlines and enrollment progress can be tracked throughout the workflow. Once elections are completed, enrollment records can be prepared for transmission to insurance carriers through electronic data feeds or other carrier processes.

New Hire Onboarding and Verification

New employees can be guided through the enrollment process beginning with receipt of the new hire record. BAS supports welcome communications, enrollment windows, reminders, enrollment guidance, and confirmation of completed elections.

BAS can also support new hire verification, including eligibility review, documentation collection, status confirmation, and maintenance of supporting records. This helps ensure that enrollment processes proceed using confirmed eligibility information.

Dependent Eligibility Administration

Dependent enrollment can create additional administrative responsibilities for HR teams. BAS supports dependent eligibility processes through documentation collection, eligibility review, communication with employees, resolution of exceptions, and maintenance of supporting records.

BAS also offers dependent eligibility audit services for employers seeking to review whether enrolled dependents satisfy their plan’s eligibility requirements.

Visibility and Documentation

Benefits administration often requires HR teams to determine whether an employee completed enrollment, whether eligibility was confirmed, whether documentation was received, and whether an election was transmitted to the carrier.

MyEnroll360 provides employers with visibility into enrollment completion, eligibility status, documentation, and carrier-related activity. BAS maintains records throughout the workflow to support ongoing administration and provide an audit trail of enrollment activity.

Connecting Enrollment with Ongoing Benefits Administration

Enrollment does not operate in isolation. Employee eligibility, benefit elections, dependent information, and carrier records affect many other HR and benefits processes.

BAS brings enrollment, onboarding, verification, dependent eligibility, reporting, and carrier coordination together through MyEnroll360. By maintaining these processes within a connected administrative environment, employers can reduce manual tracking and provide HR teams with greater visibility into benefits administration throughout the year.
