What employees had to say. . .<br />39<br />“The personal stories of people and the plans they’ve chosen is really wonderful approach – very creative and very welcoming.”<br />“Most successful Planet Blue group seen yet”<br />“I was going to keep my current coverage because I understood the basics and am happy with my CDHP (I’ve got $7K in HRA). I kind of ignored all the info-sharing channels because in my head I made my decision. Until late last week… I caught a comment in a blog about “extra bucks” and being able to move my HRA dollars to HDHP. Suddenly I thought ‘wait, I need to look into this and the HDHP’. Had it not been for those discussions in Planet Blue I never would have known about this.”<br />“Cool! I think a Planet Blue group is a positive move for Annual Enrollment and designates a place to get information, Q&A, etc. for Annual Enrollment this year and future years.”<br />
