    Here's something many people don't realize - you might qualify for significant savings on health insurance, even if you think you won't. Through ACA subsidies, premium tax credits could lower your monthly costs, while cost-sharing reductions would help reduce deductibles and copays. We've seen too many people default to expensive COBRA plans without exploring their options. When’s platform shows you potential subsidies alongside COBRA costs, making it easy to understand what you could actually pay for coverage. Don't assume you won't qualify. For most people, health insurance subsidies are available if your income is between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL) or if your health insurance plan costs more than 8.5% of your income. Let Jamie, our AI assistant, help you explore your options and discover potential savings you might be missing. Source: healthcare.gov #ReadyforWhen #ACA #HealthInsurance #Premiums #InsuranceCosts

    Exciting to see Waystar's innovative use of AI to tackle healthcare's complex challenges. Like Waystar, we believe AI has the power to transform stressful healthcare moments into smoother experiences. At When, we're using AI to address another critical gap: helping people navigate health insurance transitions. While Waystar focuses on claim denials, we're using AI to simplify the overwhelming process of finding affordable alternative coverage to COBRA after leaving an employer plan. The healthcare industry spends billions on administrative challenges - from fighting claim denials to managing COBRA transitions. Technology isn't just about efficiency; it's about making these moments less stressful for real people facing real decisions. This is why When developed Jamie, our AI assistant. Because finding affordable coverage during life transitions shouldn't require diving through complex insurance documents or understanding industry jargon. Kudos to Waystar for pushing healthcare innovation forward. Here's to making healthcare more accessible, one AI solution at a time.  #ReadyforWhen #HealthTech #AI #Innovation #HealthcareInnovation

    Expanding on Andy's important points about Meta and Microsoft's recent announcements…mixing performance management with layoffs isn't just poor leadership - it's a dangerous approach that undermines the core principles of effective people management. When employees sense that performance discussions might be veiled layoff notices, we lose the psychological safety necessary for honest feedback and genuine improvement. Every one-on-one becomes suspect, every performance review a potential threat. Performance management, when done right, requires clearly defined success metrics, structured improvement plans, fair evaluation processes, and time for meaningful change. These elements become impossible when mixed with RIF decisions. You can't genuinely offer someone the chance to improve while simultaneously planning to eliminate their role. The solution isn't complex, but it demands unwavering commitment. If a role truly needs to be eliminated due to business needs, own that decision transparently. If someone's performance needs improvement, give them the support, tools, and time to make those changes. These should be entirely separate conversations with distinct purposes and outcomes.

    The recent announcements from Meta and Microsoft about "performance-based cuts" caught my attention - but not in a good way. Let's be real, dressing up layoffs as performance-based actions isn't just opaque - it's potentially damaging to your organization's long-term health. Here's why: First, it creates a culture of fear and anxiety among your existing team. When every performance review could be a potential exit ticket, you kill psychological safety and innovation. Your best people start playing it safe instead of taking smart risks. Not to mention, performance reviews are inherently flawed. They're rarely the objective assessment they claim to be. Unconscious biases, personal preferences, and inconsistent evaluation criteria can easily skew these reviews. Second, you're sending a clear message to top talent in the market: "Join us, but watch your back." In an industry where competition for skilled workers remains fierce, that's not a message you want associated with your employer brand. Finally, let's consider the ripple effects on those who stay. I've seen firsthand how these moves erode trust in leadership and company loyalty. Your "survivors" start updating their resumes, and your institutional knowledge walks out the door with them. When bias can slip so easily into these assessments - whether it's a manager's personal preference, an unconscious demographic bias, or simply the recollection of a recent project - using them as a basis for layoffs becomes not just unfair, but potentially discriminatory. Companies succeed when they build cultures of transparency and support. If restructuring is necessary, own it honestly. Your people - both current and future - will respect you more for it. #ReadyforWhen #Layoffs #Tech #RIF #PerformanceReview

    Record-breaking ACA enrollment numbers tell an important story: Americans need and want affordable healthcare options beyond employer-sponsored coverage. With nearly 24 million people enrolled through the ACA Marketplace during an Open Enrollment period, it's clear that flexible, accessible coverage alternatives are crucial. At When, we're proud to help organizations guide their transitioning employees to these affordable ACA options. By showing plans side-by-side, we're helping people make informed decisions that save them money while reducing employers' exposure to high-cost claims. The data published by the The White House indicates that ACA plans are saving consumers an average of $800 annually on premiums. But the impact goes beyond statistics - it's about ensuring people can move forward with confidence, knowing they have affordable coverage that fits their needs. #ReadyforWhen #ACA #OpenEnrollment #COBRA #HealthInsurance #Coverage #Insurance

    As we enter 2025, many of us are thinking about new beginnings—whether it’s pursuing a fresh business venture or tackling challenges with a renewed sense of optimism. That's why I'm excited to share my recent conversation with Andrew Hamilton, CEO and co-founder of When, on the Value Drivers podcast. Andy’s story is a great example of turning a challenge into an opportunity for innovation. Andy founded When after experiencing a layoff from Expedia and realizing how inadequate the support systems for exiting employees were—particularly when it came to navigating COBRA. When aims to improve the offboarding process by offering employees better alternatives to COBRA, alongside personalized guidance on everything from health insurance to financial planning. But there’s something unique about Andy’s journey. He and his co-founder, Dan Werthheimer, are quite literally next-door neighbors in the Chicago area. (Yes, you read that right!) They regularly discuss business challenges in their backyards—a dynamic that’s quite rare in today’s remote-first world. While the rest of the When team is fully distributed across the country, this close proximity between the founders adds a unique touch to how they run their business. In our chat, Andy shared insights into how When is helping employers improve their offboarding processes while also saving costs. By offering alternative health plans and support services to employees, companies can reduce their dependence on COBRA and improve their brand reputation with positive exit experiences. Andy’s reflections on building a company from scratch and the importance of finding the right investor partners who offer more than just capital will resonate with any entrepreneur. If you’re interested in how AI, employee benefits, and business strategy intersect, or if you want to hear from a founder who's not only building a company but also sharing a fence with his co-founder, check out this episode. There’s no better way to kick off 2025 than with fresh perspectives on entrepreneurship and innovation. #AI #HRTech #Startup 🎧 Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/eqRP6mhm
