From health care plan coverage to voluntary benefits to communication strategies, COVID-19 will have a profound impact on 2021 benefit elections. To address these challenges, Buck, an integrated HR and benefits consulting, technology, and administration services firm, will host a webinar titled, “How will COVID-19 impact 2021 benefits and annual enrollment?” on Thursday, June 18 from 1 p.m. ET – 2 p.m. ET.

Speakers Kelly Conlin, Tom Kelly, Amy Dunn, and Debra Andrianopoulos, from Buck’s Health, Compliance, and Engagement practices will discuss how:

• Predictive modeling can help employers anticipate future health care costs
• Supplemental medical and other voluntary benefits can help meet employee needs
• Recent IRS guidance expands permissible mid-year cafeteria plan election changes
• Rethinking annual enrollment communication strategies can more effectively engage employees in the process
