Benefit Bytes : Nothing can be more frustrating to a business owner than finding out second hand information that their trusted advisors should be providing them with. That’s why at Total Benefit Solutions we make it a point to keep our clients informed about changes in our industry. Not just regulatory but also carrier changes, product offerings and simple benefits related guidance. One of the ways we do this is with our e-newsletter, Total Benefits Briefs.

EAP Plus- Your Small Group Employee Assistance Plan: Many small businesses don’t have the resources and tools to properly address the other issues – the people issues that invariably arise, such as addressing employee concerns, HR policies, helping with management problems, and legal issues. Owners of small businesses need tools to make their lives easier while improving their employees’ productivity.
Health Advocate : Having Health Advocate means never having to feel alone in the healthcare world. Click to link to find out more about Health Advocate and why our clients feel secure having it as an affordable addition to their benefits package.
Online HRA Administration Implementing an HRA plan for your organization can provide better benefits for your employees at a lower cost. Don’t move your plan, improve it! Online administration keeps it simple and keeps you compliant!
Defined Contribution Solutions Under the ACA many organizations will determine that they no longer want to make healthcare choices for their employees. A defined contribution plan means you can still offer a valuable employee benefit and avoid the overhead costs of choosing and implementing your own health plans.
Tax Advantaged Plan Documents: The IRS Code has numerous provisions designed to help employers provide essential benefits to their employees tax-free. This saves the employee approximately 30% in income taxes on expenses they’re already paying for, and because the employees have reduced their taxable income, the employer realizes a reduced matching payroll tax liability of approximately 8%. Everybody saves money. To take advantage of these tax deductions the IRS requires that the employer have a written plan document and the Department of Labor and ERISA law require that every employee receive a summary plan description (SPD) explaining the new benefit in easy to understand language. This site is dedicated to providing employers with the tools they need to successfully establish these written plans with SPDs at the lowest cost possible. Please don’t hesitate to call us if you have questions, we will be happy to assist you. Thank you.
Medical Bridging: Oftentimes, the cost of care has escalated to the point where the most affordable solutions are plans with higher deductibles and out of pocket expenses which can present a challenge for your employees. A medical bridging solution can be employer or employee paid and can relieve the stress of having a potential high out of expense should an unexpected accident or critical illness arise.
Group Plan Summaries: We will always provide a summary or grid for your group benefit plan.
Ancillary Benefits: Ancillary Benefits including Dental, Vision, Life, Disability, Hospital, Indemnity and Wraps. Total Benefit Solutions works impartially with all of the major ancillary benefit carriers.
Voluntary Benefits: Benefits that an employer can offer at employees expense. Voluntary benefits typically include benefits such as the ancillary benefits above as well as more specific personal plans such as cancer plans, accident plans and more. Total Benefit Solutions works impartially with all of the major voluntary benefit carriers.

David Fiebert Inc
We have been working with (Total Benefit Solutions Inc.) since we decided to start our own company benefit plan. Ed and his team took the time to answer each question along the way, and advised us about the challenges even before they happened. The support provided to us was invaluable in many aspects of running our company, not just getting the benefits installed. In retrospect I cannot imagine how any small business could complete the process on their own without creating more problems for themselves. It could have been an enormous headache, but instead it was smooth from beginning to end. Thanks!-David Fiebert, President
"Kim went above and beyond in helping find a new individual medical insurance plan for me. We met in person to go over all the questions I had about the different types of plans and how they worked. I felt really taken care of."

Ed is an expert in health insurance. I am a health care provider myself and I know how difficult this business can be. He is knowledgeable with all of the health insurance companies in our area. If you are looking for health insurance I would not pass up Ed for a quote he is great for single plans as well as plans for groups for business owners. Zola Makrauer DMD 
I was referred to this firm by a friend and they are the best of the best. I started working with Patty who was excellent in navigating me through a family health insurance plan. Now it’s time to build a group health plan for my business and working with Ed who spared a lot of time with me to get grounded on what to expect. These guys know premier customer service. Highly recommend this gem of a company!

As the principal in a small firm, nothing can drain me of productive time then handling our insurance renewal each year. But since 2002 we have worked closely with the (Total Benefit Solutions Inc.) who have brought a dedication to the task I had not previously seen. In fact, because of following your advice, I was able to get the top notch specialty medical care I required, where I wanted it and when I needed it most.

I'm writing to apologize and to express my dismay and regret for switching from your firm last year. What a gargantuan mistake that was! To recount the horrors of dealing with the firm we switched to would only cause me to relive them, something I'm not willing to do (at this point). What do I have to do to get back with you guys?

Ed and his staff were very helpful in getting me through the open enrollment process and answered my mother's questions with her Medicare enrollment.

Ed is the most innovative and communication oriented broker that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He has the most sophisticated software to service his client book of business, so that he doesn't miss a beat! Ed and I have worked together on many presentations and with various associations. He shares a true passion for helping clients small and large, which I do not find in many brokers. He is a dedicated member of the Board at the Lower Bucks County Chamber of Commerce, not to mention his many public service roles in Rotary, etc...I admire his ability to find time to help so many people!Amy Murray Hyde, Account Representative, CBDI, Inc.

I’ve been working with Total Benefits Solutions for many years now. Every year they run the numbers for comparison of the prescription plans available to supplement my Medicare plan. She does a fantastic job, even recommending plans that don’t work with brokers (no commission to them). (they) found health care plans for me before I went on Medicare as well. Do yourself a favor. Call them. You will be glad you did! -Brenda M
