“Now more than ever, employers crave an end-to-end benefits experience that helps employees navigate and understand their benefits in a digital world,” said David Healy, senior vice president, Group Benefits, Sun Life U.S. “We are committed to bringing our clients innovative HR and benefits solution options, so they can choose the platform that best fits their unique goals. We are pleased to work with an industry-leading solution like PlanSource to bring our suite of benefits to employees in an educational and engaging way.”

As part of the PlanSource Boost program, Sun Life works to eliminate manual aspects of the benefits administration experience, such as exchange of evidence of insurability (EOI) data, through real-time automation and connection capabilities. Greater connectivity will optimize the benefits administration and management experience for HR teams and provide an easy and more meaningful benefits enrollment experience for employees.
