Avergent Health For Brokers

Enabling the next generation of health benefit leaders.

The market is shifting. Employers are getting smart. Tolerance for status quo mis-aligned carriers and brokers is wearing thin. Benefit advisors ready to offer transparency, accountability and true solutions that address root-cause problems will own tomorrow's market. We want to partner with you.

How we partner

Avergent Health is focused on enabling benefit brokers and advisors to take strategic leadership with their employers.

Together we institute High Performing Health Plans that transform benefit performance.

  • Education & Training Market-ready materials, client-facing talk tracks, and ongoing education so you can speak fluently about HPHP strategy.
  • Employer-Facing Support We sit alongside you on prospect calls, renewals, and CFO conversations — you lead, we add the technical depth.
  • Full-Service Plan Administration End-to-end administration so the plan runs cleanly post-install and you stay focused on client relationships.

Quit making excuses at renewal. Start putting real answers on the table.

i. Economics

Name your own PEPM

You price your service, period. We don't cap it, hide it in the fine print, or pull it back later. It's your book and your client; keep it that way.

ii. Retention

Break the renewal cycle

No more shuffling clients between carriers every year hunting for the cheapest quote. Build long-term strategic partnerships with employers with a plan engineered to become a valuable strategic asset that becomes a talent and retention magnet.

iii. Prospecting

Pull accounts away from the BUCAs

Show a CFO what they're spending today at 350% of Medicare versus what they could be spending — and you've already hooked them before your pitch starts.

You have got to have a broker that gets it. Avergent has been instrumental in guiding us through the complex landscape of healthcare benefits. Their approach is genuinely transformative.

Different employers, unique opportunities for High Performing Health Plans.

Stuck with a carrier ASO?

That's self-funded on paper and nothing more. The carrier runs claims through their own network rates (350% of Medicare), pockets the pharmacy rebates, and makes no real effort to rein in spending.

Best fit: Employers who are already self-funded and ready for genuine cost containment — not just a claims-processing shop.

In the middle of a TPA RFP?

If your client is already out to bid, Avergent Health belongs on the short list. We aren't a cookie-cutter TPA — we offer fully integrated plans with direct primary care, Collaborative Care, preferred provider steerage, and hands-on cost management all baked in.

Best fit: Employers who took the self-funded leap but never got the results they were promised.

Trapped in a hospital-owned HMO?

Hospital-owned HMOs corral employees inside one health system — charging facility-level prices across the board with no transparency and no way out. Your client assumes they're coming out ahead because the network is "tight." The reality: they're shelling out 350–450% of Medicare with no mechanism to redirect care toward cheaper, better-performing options.

Best fit: Employers fed up with limited choice, climbing HMO rates, and zero line of sight into what they're actually paying for.

Still on a fully insured plan?

Your client is handing over fixed premiums to a carrier that pockets every dollar of savings and dictates the price on the other side. It's past time for a real conversation about what moving to self-funded could unlock.

Best fit: 50+ employees, worn out by renewal-season shocks, and open to doing things differently.
