Following the pattern set by Massachusetts, many states and local governments are lining up to address the issue of providing access to Health Care for all their citizens. In the process they are creating a very complex regulatory and compliance environment for employers. BCA is focused on helping our clients manage these multi-state compliance requirements. Our Solutions build on our experience as Business Process Outsourcers and developers of specialized employee benefit software that can be used over the internet. BCA has developed the Complete Comply™ platformWe built this platform to provide our clients an economical and efficient solution to what is now a labor intensive compliance process. Complete Comply™ can be easily configured to handle all compliance requirements from data management to employee communications and publishing.![]() The Complete Comply™ Platform can be used in two different ways, The ComplyPRO Subscription is a complete full service outsourced approach where BCA operates the software and provides all of the service and support. With this turnkey approach clients interact with the Complete Comply analyst, the PRO, who manages their activity. Clients only use the Complete Comply™ portal to enter employee data and to check on employee compliance efforts. This solution can be obtained for less than $3 per day.more The ComplyeXpress Subscription is a self-service approach where the user is able to operate the Complete Comply™ system on their own, all the while being guided by an online software wizard. Users also have access to an online help analyst. This solution can be obtained for less than $1 per day. more With either approach an employer can be assured that they are in complete compliance in all the jurisdictions where they operate. Both options use the same Complete Comply™ Platform to deliver services, the only difference is how the client chooses to interact with the platform. How do these approaches differ? Each approach uses the same Complete Comply™ platform so an employer can be assured that they are in Complete Compliance in those jurisdictions that require Healthcare compliance. The major difference is cost, the ComplyeXpress Subscription is a self service approach that can save the average employer $500 to $1,000 per year. With self service the user has more direct control over the process and more direct responsibility. This will require more work on the clients part (most likely less than an hour a month.) With ComplyPRO full service approach, the PRO assigned to your case handles the entire effort on a turnkey basis, meaning less work for the user, but at a slightly higher cost. What approach is best for my organization? If your time is short and you do not normally handle these compliance matters, or simply wish to have an expert do the job for you, the Full Service approach with ComplyPRO may be best for you. If you are familiar and comfortable using the internet, the ComplyeXpress Self Service approach can work for you and also save your organization some money. Here is a link to a more in depth analysis.more Why don't employers do this all themselves? Many do, and in fact the Mass Connector has provided many useful resources that can be used to "Do it yourself". Here is a link to the 'Connector Employer Manual.' The process can be complex and most employers do not have the time and resources to handle compliance. Compliance is a popular and natural task to outsource. Employers are familiar with ERISA compliance which sets a level playing field across all 50 states Many employers do not have the expertise and experience and are not ready to “localize compliance and communication”. Since each state and local jurisdiction is unique, just keeping up with the rapidly changing laws, regulations, support structures and reporting requirements can be an expensive and time consuming task. |
