Press Release Summary: A helpful list of what insurance brokers should communicate
when developing a plan for employee healthcare benefits packages.

Press Release Body: Edison, NJ (March 11, 2008) - The Wilshire Group, an insurance
affiliate of CheckPoint HR, LLC, today released its list of the top five things
insurance brokers should communicate when developing a plan for employee healthcare
benefits packages. Developed by Patrick Carragher, partner with The Wilshire Group,
the list is a helpful resource to ensure the best coverage for your company's most
valuable asset - its employees.
1. Understand Your Business. Each business has unique needs and cannot afford a
"one size fits all" insurance strategy. Understanding the business will ensure the
best rates and plans for your specific needs. This allows us to balance your
business and employee needs, quality of policy options, and budget without
compromise.
2. A Commitment to the Client. Even though renewals are annual processes, a
professional broker will continuously monitor your business needs and proactively
manage your insurance options.
3. Independent Judgment. You will be best served if your relationship is grounded
in trust and confidence. You need to be secure in the knowledge that the advice you
receive is objective, considered, and free of hidden influences.
4. Exceptional Expertise and Service. The issues are too complicated, the cost is
too high, and your need for services of value is too great for you to settle for
anything less. You have every reason to expect knowledge, expertise, and
exceptional service. Search for these qualities and you are likely to find them.
5. Openness for Change. Resistance to change is a dead end street---for you and
your organization. Today's business world is too competitive and the way to survive
is to reshape to the needs of a rapidly changing world.
"The rising costs of healthcare can be frightening for many small to medium sized
businesses and choosing a broker that has your best interest in mind is not an easy
task," said Patrick Carragher, partner, The Wilshire Group. "By following these five
tips, companies can openly communicate with their brokers and ensure that their
health insurance programs reflect their changing business and employee needs."
The Wilshire Group's flagship BENeLERTT Process utilizes a 180-day proven practice
to help clients identify the best rates and plans for their insurance needs. This
process begins 180 days prior to the clients' renewal date and allows The Wilshire
Group to fully analyze data, research the most innovative benefits program, and
tailor it to fit the clients' financial needs while delivering a comprehensive plan
for their employees. This pro-active methodology benefits the client and allows for
The Wilshire Group to deliver unparalleled service not only during the renewal
process but throughout the year.

The Wilshire Group offers a broad range of group insurance solutions, including
health, life, workers' compensation, as well as 401K and pension plans. The company
represents a broad range of leading carriers, including Guardian, United Healthcare,
Cigna, Oxford, and Aetna.
