PERMA, an alternative-risk solution provider, has chosen Benefit Express to electronically administer benefits for its Health Joint Insurance Fund segment, which is accessible to governmental departments and school districts in New Jersey.

"This partnership with Benefit Express is tremendous news, not only for the public entities enrolled in our Health JIFs, but for their employees as well," says Joseph DiBella, executive vice president of PERMA. "It represents a material investment in technology that will allow us to provide exceptional web-based services to our members and eliminate many of the manual processes."

"This development takes what we can offer to the next level. Our Health JIFs and plan members will now enjoy things like online enrollment, secure access to their benefit elections, and self-service features similar to what they experience when they shop online at Amazon.com. Plus, important benefit documents will be at their fingertips, day and night. This set of bundled services is simply not available anywhere else."

The new Benefit Express implementation begins in the first quarter and is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year.

"Our innovative system and commitment to service make us the perfect choice for the PERMA Health JIFs," says Monica Hinchey, chief client services officer. "We offer solutions that will make a huge impact in terms of efficient benefit enrollment and administration. This truly is a win-win situation for all involved."
