Challenges

Like other small businesses, Stenz Corporation was familiar with the difficulties of offering quality, yet affordable, health benefits. The organization had previously adopted an ICHRA through another vendor. However, they were becoming increasingly frustrated with the payment processes, responsiveness, and the overall customer service.

Having a reliable and responsive ICHRA benefits partner was crucial for Stenz to ensure a smooth management process and maintain a high level of employee trust and satisfaction. Jon Weaver, their broker consultant at NFP, saw the strain these challenges were putting on Stenz’s HR team and staff. He concluded that they needed a partner who could provide the personal attention, expertise, and timeliness their previous ICHRA administrator lacked.

Stenz Corporation was facing:

Service and communication delays

Complications with support made resolving employee issues frustrating and time-consuming.

A need for stronger vendor support

Stenz needed a partner that aligned with their internal expectations and their broker’s commitment to provide high-quality service.

Payment and administrative challenges

These added complexity and hassle to the HR team’s workload, slowing down everyday tasks.

"Stenz wanted to transition from another ICHRA vendor to Remodel Health due to several challenges, particularly around slow service responses. So, I sat down with Stenz leadership to review their current plan, with a special focus on their first year in the ICHRA model."

The Solution: Transition to Remodel Health

Guided by their broker, Stenz Corporation began looking into other ICHRA vendors and quickly found Remodel Health to be a strong fit. Remodel Health’s full-service approach stood out to them. Unlike their previous ICHRA vendor, Remodel Health provides dedicated, hands-on support not only for employers and brokers but also for every employee new to the ICHRA and the individual market. 

Remodel Health’s ICHRA+® solution had all the key components of the flexible and modern health benefit that Stenz valued from their previous vendor. However, they offered a higher level of customer service, customized education resources, and an engaged and proactive team, which promised a smooth transition and ongoing support throughout the plan year.

Implementation

Transitioning from one ICHRA vendor to another can be a complex process. But Stenz found the process with Remodel Health to be organized, thorough, and well-communicated. Remodel Health’s launch team worked closely with the company’s HR department and their broker to ensure a seamless setup with clear communication and personalized support from day one.

  • Engaged, hands-on onboarding. Remodel Health’s launch specialists maintained active contact with Stenz throughout implementation, ensuring that both HR and employees understood each step of the process.
  • Employee-first support. Each Stenz team member had access to personalized guidance through their dedicated Customer Success Representative, Aileen, who became their primary point of contact for plan questions, reimbursements, and renewals.
  • Collaborative broker partnership. Remodel Health’s proactiveness and support aligned with Jon Weaver’s primary goal, which was guaranteeing that Stenz received consistent, high-quality service at every level.
