Enrollment Planning

Enrollment
Houze & Associates provides multiple avenues for employees to enroll their benefits.
Online Enrollment
Houze & Associates has developed our own online enrollment system to accommodate new and existing benefits, as well as any ancillary benefits. Employees are assigned a PIN number and can self-enroll online at their convenience.
Benefit Counselors
Houze & Associates will visit any company location in order to sit down with each employee to review and elect/decline all offered benefits. Benefit Counselors are equipped with signature pads as well as printers, so Employees leave with a copy of their signed benefit election form. Signatures and elections are housed in the computer that allows for a Composite Enrollment Form for upload to the carriers and to the employers payroll/benefit system.
Call Center
Houze & Associates provides a toll free call center staffed with licensed agents to talk through any benefit question or changes with your employees. We provide PIN number certification (see benefit statements), so employees can elect/decline benefits through the call center.
