Far too often, the health care system fails the people it was intended to serve. Consumers and employees are frequently left alone to face complex systems and catastrophic costs. That's where the benefits industry can step in and make a difference. As the health care and benefits landscape changes and evolves, a growing number of benefits professionals and organizations are doing all they can to humanize the process.

The 2023 LUMINARIES honorees in Humanizing Benefits stepped outside of their roles to grow their companies' in this area. These individuals and companies are being recognized for the dynamic and inclusive ways they are leading the benefits and health care industries. Each was selected by a distinguished and diverse team of industry leaders with input from our editorial team.

You will be able to read more about these honorees in the October issue of BenefitsPRO magazine and through our online and social media coverage in the coming days and weeks. We hope you find their efforts and accomplishments informative and inspiring. They demonstrate the tremendous impact that both firms and individuals can have within the benefits and health care communities.
