Key Findings & Highlights:

The H&W services market remains strong due to the complexities of administering benefits, especially in light of healthcare reform and other changing regulations, as well as the need to control benefits spend.

First generation H&W buyers are turning to vendors to comply with legislation, reduce operating costs, and improve communications with employees.

Within second generation contracts, competitive pricing is the number one reason for clients to switch H&W service providers. Other reasons include seeking a wider suite of services such as ongoing dependent verifications, etc., as well as the need to consolidate benefits suppliers.

Within the H&W area, the majority of vendors were focused on launching new service offerings around ACA's Employer Shared Responsibility provision. Other new offerings were around spending account administration, audits, and wellness services.

Within the next year, vendors will develop or further enhance exchange offerings. Examples include launching exchanges geared toward the mid-market, adding extended lines of coverage, etc.

Acquisitions in the last two years have been focused on three particular H&W services: reimbursement account admin, COBRA, and private exchanges. Nearly all acquisitions were focused on strengthening services overall, with little emphasis on expanding geographic footprints.
