Integrating and Offering A Fully Automated Benefits and HSA Experience

Lively is pleased to announce an integrated benefits and health savings partnership with Maxwell Health. The cornerstone of the partnership combines two modern platforms to offer a better experience for both employers and employees.

Maxwell Health and Sun Life have joined forces, bringing insurance and technology together to create the first carrier-distributed technology platform. As a result, they are able to offer a painless benefits and HR experience that’s easier and better in the ways that make a difference. A single technology platform that rounds out your HR ecosystem and supports all of your benefits, period.

According to our 2019 Wellness and Wealth Report, less than one-third of employees fully understand their healthcare benefits. Modern providers like Lively and Maxwell Health address this issue head-on, providing technology and intuitive experiences that empower employees to make educated decisions about their benefits. Our partnership is designed to accelerate this understanding.

The Lively and Maxwell Impact

  • Technology Backed with Service - Two providers with the same approach, modernizing the benefits offering and experience with easy-to-use interfaces. This is backed with expert and accessible account and customer experience teams.

  • Integrated Experience - An exceptional benefits offering and experience requires an easy-to-use interface. A modern partnership needs to offer the convenience of an integrated experience so employees and employers alike can save time and get more from their benefits experience.

  • Real-Time Benefits and HSA Tracking - Both Maxwell and Lively allow consumers to access and review their benefits portfolio any time of the year through a web-based portal or a mobile app, helping them fully utilize the value of their benefits package.

Healthcare costs are the highest expense for many U.S. households, making them top of mind for employees. Offering integrated partnerships, with automated platforms like Maxwell Health allow employers and employees to better understand their benefits offerings and take control of their healthcare coverage and savings.
