At Group Benefit Strategies we take the time to understand your business. No cookie-cutter sales approach — no hype. Just honest, professional assistance from partners who are intimately familiar with the group benefits industry.
Together, Group Benefit Strategies associates represent over 100 years of experience in the industry — and we’re committed to helping you make choices for your business that increase your productivity as well as protect your employees.
Intimate knowledge of the products available to employers today, coupled with a thorough understanding of industry standards and regulatory requirements in Maryland, Delaware and Pennsylvania, makes Group Benefit Strategies your independent broker of choice when it comes to providing benefits for your staff — and we have saved our clients thousands of dollars in benefit costs.
At GBS we provide all the lines of coverage you have available in the group market for people in between jobs, students, part-time workers, retirees, or self-employed individuals. We also help seniors navigate the dizzying array of options for Medicare supplemental insurance.
Some of these types of policies require medical underwriting at this time; however, we are available to assist our potential clients with all the help they need to implement these types of plans. Our organization has the expertise to help guide you to find the most affordable and comprehensive individual insurance coverage in the marketplace.
As an independent health insurance broker in Harford County, we represent your interests, and not those of any one insurance company. We ask you the questions an online cookie-cutter form can’t, to help ensure you get a plan tailored to your needs. We’ll leverage our expertise to offer you expert guidance and access to policy information for recommended, personalized coverage options.
We’re here to answer your questions about the differences between plan types and the meanings of industry-specific terms. We are up to date on both state and federal insurance laws and regulations, which vary by state. We can also offer you some perspective on what policies most people in your shoes tend to select and how those decisions play out going forward.
Best of all, this service is free to you, the individual. As an independent insurance broker, we are paid commission directly from the insurance carrier you individually select. We don’t try to steer you towards a certain company – that’s against the law, and a dishonest practice. We’ll help you determine which of the many individual insurance plans are right for you.
