Annual enrollment strategy and communications

Benefits are one of the largest investments organizations make in their employees, and employees rely on them year-round. So instead of a one-and-done approach each year, why not think of enrollment as part of your overall health and wellness strategy? CommuniCause can help you weave consumer-driven messages into your strategy throughout the year so you can better prepare employees for the important decisions they’ll need to make during annual enrollment—and they’ll make smarter decisions that can affect your bottom line.   

Plan changes and updates

Don’t just rely on out-of-the-box communications from carriers, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), dental and vision providers. CommuniCause can help you supplement the messaging by explaining plan changes in relation to your overall health and wellness strategy so that employees can make better health-related decisions for themselves and their families.   

Branding and launch

Make sure your health management program resonates with your employees. CommuniCause can help you create a relatable program that fits with your company culture.

Microsite strategy and content

Whether your company has a home-grown site to manage benefits or partners with a benefits administration company, creating a dedicated microsite for all things health-and wellness-related saves employees time and can increase program participation while making it easier for your team to deliver important messages at the right time. CommuniCause can help you create a microsite strategy that creates a seamless experience for employees, regardless of who manages your benefits site. 

Year-round communication strategy and messaging (vendor alignment)

Most companies have multiple partners that provide health and wellness programs for employees: Employee Assistance Program (EAP), health savings account (HSA), health management/biometrics, medical second opinion, fitness and gym reimbursement management, musculoskeletal, maternity, infertility, chronic condition management … and the list goes on. Interacting with multiple vendors and trying to keep track of all the messaging being directed toward your employees is a full-time job. CommuniCause can help you align multiple vendor communications with your overall health and wellness strategy to create consistent and well-timed messages without overwhelming your employees.

Explainer/educational video scriptwriting

Based on employees’ different learning styles and primary languages, adding an engaging and straight-forward video to your communication strategy can increase engagement and program participation. While many companies offer out-of-the-box videos to explain high-deductible health plans, health savings accounts, incentive plans and more, the messaging may conflict with your company’s unique benefit plan. CommuniCause can help you create a custom video script that explains programs and concepts in relation to your company’s plan and culture.   

Plan launch

While nearly every company offers some flavor of a defined contribution (DC) plan to employees, few tie the savings plan to their overall benefits communication strategy. CommuniCause can work with you and your savings plan administrator to brand and launch your company’s savings plan and build messaging into your year-round communication strategy.

Ongoing communications (vendor alignment)

Most savings plan administrators have extensive communications that are sent to plan participants on a regular basis. CommuniCause can work with you and your plan administrator to ensure consistent messaging and align communications with your overall benefits strategy.
