Late 20th Century • Service economy • Employees as “commodity” • Demographic shifts • Rising costs/shifting by employer • Benefit choices more complex • Standardized employer communication • Employee perception of value declines • Emergence of voluntary benefits in small groups
21st Century and Beyond • Employer & employee cost sharing • Continued demographic shift/aging population & over-utilization of healthcare system • Healthcare costs skyrocket • Traditional employer paid ancillary become voluntary • Voluntary Benefits in middle-market • Employer “facilitator” rather than purchaser
