Alegeus Sees Continued Momentum for Its Market-Leading COBRA Platform

WealthCare COBRA greatly simplifies complicated administration processes, delivering streamlined enrollment to individuals

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alegeus, the market leader in healthcare payment solutions, today announced continued momentum for its market-leading COBRA platform, WealthCare COBRA.

WealthCare COBRA, the industry’s first entirely cloud-native COBRA and direct-billing platform, empowers administrators to close administrative gaps and improve operational efficiency and scalability, resulting in increased customer satisfaction. Moreover, the platform simplifies complicated processes and reduces manual work requirements, and as layoffs continue across sectors—impacting employers and their employees—it delivers streamlined enrollment.

WealthCare COBRA offers numerous features benefiting administrators, employers and qualified beneficiaries. Some of the newer capabilities include:

• Configurable single sign-on (SSO) framework
  For administrators, a configurable framework allows them to easily set up SSO for a seamless user experience. For employers, it enables them to quickly and easily access beneficiary data and reports.

• COBRA online open enrollment capability
  The industry’s first comprehensive COBRA online open enrollment capability eliminates the need for administrators to manually track and manage COBRA open enrollment in disparate systems, a time-consuming process prone to human error. It enables administrators to easily and cost-effectively configure open enrollment periods, ensuring COBRA participants receive information about upcoming plan years at the right time, regardless of when their qualifying event occurs. Qualified beneficiaries can expect a smooth online process enrolling in next year’s benefits that aligns with their initial enrollment experience.

• Enhanced reporting
  The self-service reporting suite undergoes ongoing enhancements, incorporating additional data elements that deliver higher levels of insight for administrators and employers.

“COBRA is vital to millions of Americans, many of whom are undoubtedly dealing with stressful situations. To help alleviate this stress and take care of these individuals, it is important to make the COBRA election, reinstatement and payment processes as easy as possible,” said Rachel Humbird, president, Peak One. “Alegeus has built a solution that aligns with our needs and with the needs of our clients. The Alegeus platform frees up and empowers us to give customers the service they deserve.”

“In today’s changing economic environment, as an increasing number of individuals are being impacted by reductions, it is essential that they are able to continue their coverage when they need it most without dealing with administrative delays,” said Mark Waterstraat, chief customer officer, Alegeus. “Working closely with our partners, we continue to strengthen WealthCare COBRA, simplifying complex administration and greatly improving enrollment experiences for impacted individuals and their families.”
