Employee Navigator, one of the nation’s leading benefits and HR solutions for brokers, and MGIS, a national insurance manager offering specialized insurance programs for doctors, have announced a new partnership to bring leading-edge HR and benefits technology integrations to doctor group practices. The new partnership builds on MGIS’s relationship with Reliance Matrix, a leading benefits and absence provider, and its unique Employee Navigator integration.

“We believe the partnership with Employee Navigator will transform the employer and employee benefits experience,” said Jeff Brunken, President of MGIS. “Through our relationship with Employee Navigator, our mutual clients will benefit from the technology-enabled efficiencies and ease of business that are so important in today’s insurance marketplace. These integrations will help to drive participant engagement and client retention for our benefit brokers.”

Through the Employee Navigator relationship, MGIS clients will benefit from a dedicated support team that will help brokers build out a full-service enrollment experience and provide additional case management support, at no additional cost. As always, MGIS account managers also provide white-glove, specialized account management and billing support, all critical features for brokers and administrators.

“MGIS has a long history of offering the highest quality insurance program for doctors. We’re confident that our customers will receive an enhanced benefits experience through MGIS and Employee Navigator,” said George Reese, CEO of Employee Navigator. “This partnership provides seamless, integrated benefits administration and will lead to a positive enrollment experience for brokers, employers and participants.”

In 2023 MGIS announced its exclusive partnership with Reliance Matrix, a national leader in benefits solutions and absence management. Together, MGIS and Reliance Matrix serve doctors in all practice settings and medical specialties. An Employee Navigator carrier partner since 2022, Reliance Matrix more than doubled the number of benefit plans and employer clients enrolled and managed on the Employee Navigator platform in 2023, through more than 150 unique broker partners.

“Employee Navigator has played a big part in our overall success in the small and midsize employer market, thanks in part to our unique streamlined billing solution available on the platform,” said Paula Hanson, AVP Benefit Technology Solutions for Reliance Matrix. “Our proprietary process raised the bar on service and convenience and continues to win fans among brokers and clients.”

Marketed through independent brokers and agents, benefit solutions include Disability Guard for Doctors™, a unique long-term disability product blending the highly valued policy provisions of an individual product with the guaranteed issue and simplified administration of a group long-term disability plan, as well as short-term disability, group life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment plans.

MGIS also supports a High Limits Disability Insurance program, offering an increased level of protection for high earners, providing more robust and holistic protection for doctors above and beyond any group long-term disability and individual disability coverage. For those groups offering the high limits program, this specialized product will also be available on Employee Navigator as part of an integrated, holistic enrollment experience.
