“HCSC has had a long history with
Conrad Siegel Actuaries, well over 25 years,
“said Mark Angeny, Vice President, Human Resources with HCSC. “Your firm’s familiarity
with our organization is very important to us. HCSC has a complicated set-up with
several companies, both for-profit and not-for-profit, union and non-union. We offer
multiple retirement plans including a defined benefit pension plan, 401(k) plan
and 403(b) plan as well as various health plan options. It is critical for us to
be able to work with a firm like Conrad Siegel Actuaries with expertise in all of
these areas and people who understand how these plans are all interrelated.”
We find it extremely valuable to be able to pick up the phone and get access to
knowledgeable people about virtually any employee benefit subject. There is real
value in having access to people who know what they are talking about and can provide
this information to us in practical business terms.
“One of the most valuable services you provide is your firm’s assistance with our
annual negotiations with our health care providers. Knowing that we have actuaries
negotiating on our behalf directly with the carriers’ underwriters is a distinct
advantage for our organization.” In addition, your advance rate projections provided
throughout the year, put us in a position to know exactly what to expect and to
plan accordingly.
“Finally, being able to work with a firm on a fee-for-service basis rather than
a commission structure is a critical and strategic factor and benefit for our organization.
We know that we will get objective advice rather than advice that may or may not
be motivated by the commissions paid by the carrier.”
