Testimonial

Manufacturing (Ohio based | 500+ employees)

‘The multi-lingual online, interactive communications were a game changer’.

‘The Meridian open enrollment communication pieces were unlike anything I have seen before. The multi-lingual online, interactive communications were a game changer for us. It avoided us having to shutdown operations for meetings and allowed our employees to review educational materials at their own leisure in their native language.

Moving and Storage (New York based | 250 + employees)

‘Helped us stabilize and reduce our costs for 3 consecutive years’

‘We brought Meridian in after growing tired of unmanageable increases to our medical program where a couple of members were driving the cost. Meridian analyzed options, developed a strategy to address the high-cost claimants, and implemented a program that helped us stabilize and reduce our costs for 3 consecutive years’

Hospital Management (New York based | 2,300 + employees)

‘We saved over $3.5MM in 3-years’

‘Meridian have been a long-term partner having initially been brought in to analyze our pharmacy spend. Through their analysis we have saved over $3.5MM in 3-years. They were also integral to helping us set up our own internal pharmacy program and provider network.

Non-Profit (Connecticut based | 150 employees)

‘Meridians technology is awesome and holds the carriers accountable!’

‘Meridians technology is awesome and hold the carrier ac(countable. We provided Meridian with a census and in 15-minutes they produced a risk analysis using AI. The data highlights our expected next 12-months of claims, prescription usage, and medical conditions, so we can use the data to see if the medical premiums are accurate. It also helps us build a targeted wellness program based on our own usage.

Real Estate Company

After working with Jack and the Meridian Team for over nine years, I can confidently say their expertise and attention to detail have transformed our benefits program into a seamless, strategic process. The Meridian team genuinely makes our employees feel valued and ensures everyone’s annual benefit selections are tailored to their personal needs. Their data analytics platform provides the insight we need to understand our benefits usage and make informed, forward-looking decisions about our plans and budgeting.

Our staff is diverse, and Meridian’s multi-lingual communications ensure every employee fully understands their options. Our dedicated Account Manager has consistently been exceptionally responsive, even navigating complex billing and claim issues with compassion, most notably for an employee facing a terminal illness. In my 30-year career as a COO, the level of professionalism and proactive service we receive from Meridian Risk stands out as a significant upgrade over any brokerage I’ve previously worked with.
