Benefit
Communications

Our passion? Bringing fresh ideas to the world of benefit communications. We believe you can make a big difference in your employees' lives by helping them understand the benefits you offer.

We help employers make benefits understandable through creative, clear and personalized benefit communications.

Only 30% of U.S. adults completely understand their health benefits—a fact that’s costing employees and employers alike. At Westcomm, we are fluent in HDHP, PPO, HSA, HRA— just to name a few. This allows us to translate HR and insurance jargon into custom, user-friendly content and visuals that resonate with employees—ultimately equipping them to make better healthcare choices as they navigate their benefits to everyone’s benefit.

Clearly-crafted employee benefit communications lead to:

Smarter use of benefits—translating into a cost savings for both employer and employee
Better retention for top talent
Less employee confusion
Higher utilization of preventative care (proven to decrease healthcare costs)
Appropriately selected healthcare and other benefit programs
Smooth benefits onboarding for new hires
