How employee health benefits work with FlexGenius
1. Discuss your needs and goals
Tell us about your workforce and your wellbeing priorities. We can accommodate your current provider arrangements, and help you add new benefits and features to meet your requirements.
2. Configure your benefits
Your chosen employee health benefits are built into the platform – configured to your eligibility rules, branded to your organisation, and structured around your existing benefit data.
3. Employees choose, HR manages
Employees log in, browse their health benefit options and make their selections in a few steps. Behind the scenes, HR teams have full visibility, with enrolments, changes and updates managed centrally through one admin system.
4. Benefits stay visible year-round
Health benefits don't disappear when enrolment closes. Employees can log in at any time to check their cover, review their options, and make changes when their circumstances change.
“I highly recommend FlexGenius for their accuracy and the exceptional support provided from initial engagement, through a challenging implementation, to the smooth day-to-day platform activity and busy re-enrolment windows.”

Three health benefits challenges FlexGenius helps solve
1
Employees don't know what medical benefits they have access to
Private medical cover, dental cash plans, virtual GP – if employees can't find these easily, they don't use them. Low visibility means low uptake, and the investment you've made in health benefits goes unnoticed.
FlexGenius brings all employee health and wellbeing benefits into one place, with intuitive self-service access so people find what they need quickly – and use them.
2
A single health package that doesn't suit a diverse workforce
A 25-year-old and a 50-year-old have different health priorities. When employees can't adjust their health benefits to fit their situation, engagement drops – and so does the perceived value of what you offer.
FlexGenius supports flexible configuration and permission-based access, so you can tailor health benefit options to different employee groups. Everyone gets a more relevant experience.
3
Health benefits administration takes too much time
When employee health benefits are spread across emails, spreadsheets and provider portals, every enrolment window, joiner and leaver creates additional manual work – pulling HR teams away from more strategic priorities.
FlexGenius centralises health benefits administration in a single place, making it simpler for your team to manage.

FAQs about health care benefits for employees
Health benefits give employees practical support for their physical and mental wellbeing – and signal that their employer genuinely invests in them as people, not just as workers.
