Minnesota Benefit Association Newsletter – September 2017

Are you getting your discounts? 

In addition to access to a number of products and services, members of the Minnesota Benefit Association are also eligible for a number of discounts.

One of the MBA’s partners,  MetLife, allows members to receive discounts on their Home & Auto Insurance. Some of the discounts include the Good Student Discount, Driver Improvement discounts and so many more.

Members of the MBA can also qualify for
American Hearing Benefits (AHB), a Starkey Hearing Technologies company. Members have access to free hearing consultations and discounts on hearing aids through its nationwide network of hearing professionals.


Time is running out

Our calendar is quickly filling up and if you would like the Minnesota Benefit Association to participate in your benefit fair or open enrollment meeting, please reach out to us with your request at Info@MinnesotaBenefitAssociation.org.

The MBA participates in many benefit fairs every year throughout the state. We want to provide you with the best information about the many  benefits you and your employees have access to as members of the MBA.


Need legal advice? 

Everyone deserves affordable legal and identity theft protection. Including you. No matter how traumatic or trivial your situation, we are here to help. Through the Minnesota Benefit Association, you have access to a number of different plans from LegalShield, where you have the power to access legal and identity theft advice and services when you need them, all for one low monthly fee.


Upgraded billing system goes live

The Minnesota Benefit Association is implementing a new administrative platform.  This enhancement will provide a strong billing and customer service program for you.

Group invoices will continue to be delivered to you via email, and you can download your invoices with the link provided.

Once you receive your first invoice, you may notice a slight change in the amount due, this is a result of our system rounding up when calculating the total amount. This change will result in only very minor increases, essentially only pennies. This helps eliminate the problem of underpayment of premiums.
