Employee benefits administration that moves work off your HR team's desk
Administration is where most benefits plans quietly leak time and money. SSGI Benefits coordinates the details — eligibility, billing, vendor handoffs, and employee questions — so your team can focus on the work that matters.

SSGI sits between your team and the systems that hold the records — routing work, coordinating it through resolution, and keeping you informed.
Seven areas your SSGI team coordinates.
Each one is coordinated by a named SSGI contact and tracked to resolution.
New-hire benefits orientation, enrollment windows, and the paperwork that has to land on time.
Tracking eligibility rules, qualifying life events, and open enrollment — and keeping activity current.
Adding and removing employees from plans, coordinating COBRA where applicable, and closing out coverage cleanly.
We act as the point of contact between you and your carriers and TPAs so issues get routed and resolved.
Monthly invoice review, flagging discrepancies, and working with carriers to correct errors before you pay.
Plan summaries, change announcements, and one-on-one support when employees have questions.
Keeping plan documents, SPDs, and enrollment records organized and accessible for audits and reviews.

Direct answers before the first conversation
These answers explain the decision framework and responsibility boundaries. Carrier availability, rates, eligibility, and recommendations still require a current employer-specific review.

Guidance
SSGI coordinates benefits administration on your behalf. We are not the system of record, the carrier, the TPA, legal counsel, or a compliance guarantor. Authoritative plan documents, enrollment records, and legal obligations remain with your carriers, payroll vendor, and counsel.
