Read the Latest: How AI Can Help Your Clients Build an Empathetic Workforce

Dive into Businessolver’s findings connecting AI and empathy ahead of the July Think & Clink - a Virtual Bourbon tasting experience.

What do AI and empathy have in common? Surprisingly more than many realize. While it may seem contradictory, empathetic technology is helping many HR and benefits professionals streamline organizational processes and effectiveness, freeing up HR teams to be more present for their members and amplify feedback back up to leadership. With 38% of HR teams already using AI and automation to help support their teams and power effectiveness, it’s clear that AI is already starting to make a significant impact.  

Curious about how to empower your clients with AI? Read our recent article written by our Head of Science & Innovation, Sony Sung-Chu. We’ll also be speaking more about this topic in our upcoming July 13 Think & Clink, so don’t forget to save the date by providing your email in the form on the right.

June 1st deadline for RxDC Reporting approaches

The deadline for the filing of 2022 Prescription Drug Data Collection (RxDC) data is rapidly approaching. The 2022 reference year data must be submitted by June 1, 2023.  The Department of Health and Human Services recently released updated instructions for this reporting.   

Early end of National Emergency not expected to alter relief expiration timelines

Through informal guidance, the Department of Labor has indicated that the relief applicable to group health plans (related to COBRA, special enrollment Periods, claims submissions and appeals) will be extended to July 10. This is the originally communicated end date, rather than ending on an earlier date. Originally, the Biden Administration had announced that the National Emergency would end May 11, 2023, and the COVID relief applicable to these plans would end 60 days later. Compliance experts, Ben Conley from Seyfarth Shaw LLP and Bruce Gillis from Businessolver, dive into all the details in What to Know now That the National State of Emergency is Officially Over.
