Decision framework
Fairfax County issues to put on the renewal table
The review should connect a geographically broad workforce with current Virginia market facts, regional network access, and year-round operating capacity.
Network access across Northern Virginia
Test provider access across Fairfax County, neighboring Virginia jurisdictions, Washington, DC, Maryland, and remote locations.
Employer size and Virginia market options
Use current Virginia SCC and carrier information to confirm which small-group or other paths are available for the specific employer.
Contribution strategy and employee choice
Compare employer cost, employee contributions, plan design, network value, participation, and recruiting goals together.
Group coverage versus ICHRA
Evaluate individual-market availability and affordability by employee location alongside classes, notices, administration, communication, and viable group options.
How SSGI works
A Fairfax County benefits review with clear ownership
The first conversation stays at the business level. Employee medical or claims information is not needed.
1. Map the Fairfax County workforce
Start with business-level facts: employee counts, work locations, renewal date, current coverage, contribution approach, network concerns, and leadership priorities.
2. Compare viable paths
Review group plans, supporting benefits, funding, provider networks, administration, and ICHRA where appropriate for the employer's size and workforce.
3. Implement with named ownership
Assign deadlines, employee communication, enrollment, carrier steps, payroll or leave coordination, and year-round issue routing to named owners.
