Dependent Eligibility Audit

For many years most employers have used an honor system when determining which dependents to cover with the various benefit programs offered. As several high-profile employers, notably Ford Motor Company, have recently determined when they took the opportunity to look, almost all employers are carrying dependents on their plans that do not meet their eligibility rules.

With the cost of providing benefits, especially health care, continuing to increase without an end in sight, there is a quick and cost-effective way for your company to find significant savings!  A Dependent Eligibility Audit is a straightforward solution to help with a difficult budget problem. If you are one of the many companies that have for a variety of reasons not been monitoring dependent eligibility, Secova’s experience indicates that up to 10% of the members on your benefit plans are not eligible for coverage.
