Dedicated to Providing More Competitive Benefit Solutions

 

Navis Benefits Group, LLC is an independent and agnostic benefits provider partnering with both Employers and Employee Benefit Firms, specializing in Executive Disability Insurance Programs, Benefit Communication Strategies, Voluntary Worksite Benefits, and Group Long Term Care.

As a completely agnostic and specialty benefits focused firm, Navis has the expertise and a unique focus to protect Employee Benefit Firms, Employers, and Employees from unknown gaps in coverage. We fill gaps in coverage, and deliver next-level customized benefit solutions. Elevate your benefits program with Navis.

 

As your specialty benefits partner we will stress test and audit the benefit plans, provide benchmark and gap analysis, provide RFP and marketing support, prepare and present solutions to employer, execute on installation, and provide on-going service support. With over 25-years of experience and expertise we pride ourselves in being an ally and partner to our clients, customizing solutions unique to their business and employee benefit needs.

Medical insurance is perhaps the employer’s biggest budgetary item and one of the highest revenue generating products for the employee benefit firm.  It’s the other non-medical specialty benefits, often overshadowed by medical insurance, that can make a benefits package unique.

Our mission is to give the non-medical specialty benefits the focus, specialization, and shelf space necessary to strengthen the employee benefits package. We help Employee Benefit Firms that lack shelf-space, expertise, focus on the specialty benefits, or an internal specialty benefits practice to better compete; and we help Employers offer a more competitive and unique benefits program to their employees.
