We are proud to announce that Erika Illiano, Partner, Communications Practice Leader at Brown & Brown, has been featured in BenefitsPro for her article, “Breaking Benefits Barriers: Why Approachability is Key to Health Care Literacy.” She discusses how tailored communication, personalized benefits education, and simplifying offerings can significantly improve healthcare literacy and increase utilization.<\/p>\n

Erika emphasizes that understanding benefits is key to employee satisfaction and retention, offering strategies like decision-support tools, in-person events, and streamlined programs to make navigating healthcare easier for all employees. Whether a veteran employee or a new college graduate hire, workers need more guidance than ever to understand and navigate today’s complicated benefits offerings. In fact, according to the Center for Health Care Strategies, 9 out of 10 U.S. adults struggle with health care literacy or understanding their benefits.<\/p>\n

“By thinking critically about benefits approachability, employers can boost their employees’ health care literacy, see higher utilization rates and heighten morale and satisfaction.”<\/span><\/p>\n
