Why traditional health insurance fails small businesses

Traditional group health insurance often works better for larger companies than small teams. For many small businesses, renewals are unpredictable, plan choice is limited, and administration takes too much time.

Launch your ICHRA faster - without the usual group-plan delays

Setting up a traditional group plan can mean broker meetings, carrier back-and-forth, and paperwork. Lirvion helps employers move faster with a connected workflow for allowance, design, employee setup, enrollment support, and administration.

Control your costs before renewal season starts

With ICHRA, you decide how much your business contributes each month. Instead of waiting for a group renewal increase, you set a defined monthly allowance that keeps employer benefit spending easier to plan.

  • Defined monthly allowances
  • Better visibility into projected benefit costs
  • Flexible contribution design by eligible employee class

Big-company benefits. Personalized for every employee

Stop guessing which plan works for everyone. With ICHRA, employees can use their employer-funded allowance to shop for individual health coverage that fits their household, location, doctors, prescriptions, and budget.

  • Guided plan shopping experience
  • Allowance and premium payment visibility
  • Individual coverage that may stay with employees if they leave, subject to plan and payment rules

Put ICHRA administration on rails

Managing an ICHRA should not mean chasing spreadsheets, notices, premium payment records and employee records across disconnected systems.

  • Employee and allowance records
  • Premium payment and opt-out tracking
  • Notice and documentation workflows
