In their own words
BenefitConnect
BenefitConnect is WTW’s benefits administration platform for employee benefits, with web and mobile access for employees and retirees. Users can check balances, upload receipt photos, submit claims, and initiate inquiries through a portal or app. WTW says users can contact professionals through the app, online portal, call center, or automated help desk. The platform supports medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, and HRA plans. HSA, FSA, and HRA balances can appear through a web service call, and Benefits Accounts supports single sign-on with BenefitConnect. WTW also lists tested eligibility files and automated closure of non-valid HSA accounts. APIs can make information such as wellness credits, year-to-date claims, and required actions available to employees. Client-chosen wellbeing vendors can connect through established data exchange standards. BenefitConnect | COBRA is a separate multi-client version, with round-the-clock employer administration and participant self-service for elections, life events, and annual enrollment. WTW says its COBRA service combines ACA 6055/6056 reporting data with active population data.
CoAd Enroll
CoAd Enroll is a web benefits-administration platform for CoAd PEO clients. Employees can compare plans, view cost estimates, manage dependents, enroll in medical, dental, vision, FSA, and 401(k) benefits, or waive coverage. The platform also supports HRA, life insurance, voluntary benefits, and multiple medical-plan tiers. Employees start qualifying life-event changes and upload required documents; mid-year changes go to HR for approval before carriers are updated. Live EDI connections automatically transmit enrollments, terminations, and changes to insurance carriers, while recorded waivers are included in those transmissions. CoAd Enroll triggers COBRA notices, tracks election windows, and manages payment processing. Its ACA reporting support uses enrollment records to provide 1094/1095 data. Employees access it through the CoAd Quantum self-service portal from any device without another login or app. CoAd describes integration with Quantum and its wider HR infrastructure, and lists partners including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, bswift, Ease, Employee Navigator, PlanSource, WEX, and MetLife. Pricing is on request.
