We began designing employee benefit programs in June of 1987 and we currently assist over 1,800 employers nationwide ranging in size from as small as 2 to over 6,000. Unlike most administrators, our primary focus is the marketing, implementation, and administration of tax advantaged plans like Flexible Benefit Plans and Health Reimbursement Arrangements. Benefits Design Group, Inc. handles the entire administration of your employee benefit administration. We offer a full range of services including protection against loss under the At-Risk Rules for Flexible Spending Accounts, optional funding methods, variable payment frequencies, and Internet access to account information.
