🎗️Wellness Insights with Jessica Somar, CHES: Breast Cancer Awareness October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about a disease that impacts over 240,000 women and 2,100 men each year. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the U.S., affecting one in eight. However, early detection can make all the difference—the five-year survival rate is over 90% when detected early. In support of this cause, we’re sharing resources that cover myths and facts about breast cancer, symptoms to watch for, local support options, and ways employers can help support – including: - Organizing a pink ribbon/shirt day at work - Hosting a mobile mammography event - Sponsoring a breast cancer awareness event Explore Alera Group's list of national resources and more ways employers can support here: https://lnkd.in/gnwAVMqP #BCGAlera #ElevateYourWellbeing #HealthyEmployer

About us
Benefit Commerce Group (BCG), an Alera Group Company, is a progressive and results-driven firm, focusing on employee benefits, commercial property & casualty, and retirement plan services. BCG was founded in 2009 initially as an employee benefits only consulting and brokerage firm. We saw a gap in employee benefits consulting, as most benefits firms were (and still are) simply spreadsheeting rates, without clear strategies. We stepped into this space to provide financial and actuarial analysis, proven strategies for both short-term and long-term success and the information employers need to make data-driven decisions on benefits as part of their overall corporate goals. Our leadership team members have 30+ years of experience in the employee benefits and insurance industries. In August 2019, we joined Alera Group, a growing privately held firm that is committed to selecting quality agencies across the nation that share its commitment to collaboration to best serve all our clients. Since that time, we have continued to grow organically as more employers embrace our innovative strategies for benefit enhancement and cost control. We also have grown through acquisitions, which have expanded our scope beyond just employee benefits. --Our Property & Casualty Division is an acquisition we made in 2021 of a top-quality firm that we have known for many years. This P&C division is housed at our company headquarters in Scottsdale, AZ, and we interact on a daily basis to assist our clients. --BCG 401(k) Advisors, acquired in July 2022, provides retirement plan services, educational resources and investment advisory services. We are continuing to expand our reach, in concert with Alera Group, into other insurance related business lines, to continue to provide our clients with more opportunities and resources to facilitate their own growth, save money and be an employer of choice in the talent competition. Our corporate mantra is: WE SAY WHAT WE’LL DO and WE DO WHAT WE SAY.

A huge thank you to Cigna Healthcare for including Benefit Commerce Group in the recent Arizona Cardinals Football Club half-time event! 🙌 Our VP of Client Services, Christy Wood, had the honor of joining over 100 brave cancer survivors on the field during the NFL's Crucial Catch Intercept Cancer Game. This incredible initiative, supported by Cigna, focuses on the importance of early detection of breast cancer. Since 2009, the Cardinals and Cigna have worked together to raise awareness and support for cancer survivors. Together, we all make a difference! #CrucialCatch #CancerSurvivor #CignaHealthcare #BCGAlera #AZCardinals

We’re excited to share that George Fraser, CRPS, AIF, PPC, CBFA, Senior Partner of Fraser Group, a division of BCG’s Retirement Plan Services, recently attended the "401(k) Geeks" Dinner in Santa Monica, hosted by Shlomo Benartzi and Mitchell Haber. It was an inspiring evening with 35 of the industry’s top experts coming together to exchange insights on how to “do well and do good” as we prepare the next generation of leaders and future 401(k) geeks. With so many senior leaders in attendance, there was strong enthusiasm for our 'Pennies on the Dollar®' model. These types of conversations are essential as we work to shape the future of retirement planning and create meaningful impacts for both employees and organizations. #BCGAlera #RetirementPlans #401k

“Watch people who do it right. If you want to do something well, repeat it, visualize it, see it. If you can visualize it, you can make it happen.“ Noelle Pikus Pace knows how to turn things around, and she has a lot of great insights on how each of us can improve. She brought a strong message about overcoming adversity to the nearly 400 Accelerent Phoenix/BCG Breakfast Event attendees this morning. She taught an important lesson—that struggles, such as her nearly catastrophic accident as an athlete, can make us stronger, if we use them to find ways for 1% improvements. For more information about today’s event, go to the Insights section of our website: https://lnkd.in/g32ANUn. #AccelerentPhoenix #BCGAlera
