We’re thrilled to share this fantastic testimonial from Heather R., who’s seen firsthand the difference Gró HR can make: "Gró Consulting handles the payroll for our corporate law firm, which serves clients nationwide and is headquartered in Harrisburg, PA.

Jennifer Podraza, our account manager is AMAZING! Nothing gets by her; she keeps me on track and makes sure our entire team is well taken care of. She is kind, helpful, and extremely responsive.

When it comes to employee health benefits, there are two popular options: Healthcare Reimbursement Plans (HRP) and Employer-Sponsored Plans. Here’s a quick rundown to help you decide which one might be the best fit for your company. Healthcare Reimbursement Plans (HRP): Flexibility: Employees can choose their own health insurance and get reimbursed for qualified medical expenses. Control: Employers set a fixed budget, giving them cost control while offering employees more personalized options. Tax Benefits: Reimbursements are typically tax-free for employees and tax-deductible for employers. No Group Plan: HRPs don’t require the employer to manage a group health insurance plan, reducing administrative burden. Employer-Sponsored Plans: Group Coverage: The employer provides a health insurance plan that covers all eligible employees under a group policy. Predictability: Employees know exactly what’s covered, with a structured plan that’s easy to understand. Cost-Sharing: Employers often cover a significant portion of premiums, making it an affordable option for employees. Consistency: Employees receive consistent coverage, with fewer variables than an HRP might present. Both options have their advantages—HRPs offer flexibility and personalization, while employer-sponsored plans provide structure and predictability. Which one’s right for your team?

Choosing between an HSA (Health Savings Account) and an FSA (Flexible Spending Account) can feel overwhelming, but understanding the basics can help you make the best decision for your needs! HSA: Who’s Eligible? Must be enrolled in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP). Funds Roll Over: Any unused funds roll over year after year—no rush to spend it! Tax Advantages: Contributions, growth, and withdrawals for qualified medical expenses are all tax-free. Portable: The account stays with you, even if you change jobs or insurance plans. FSA: Who’s Eligible? Available with most employer-sponsored health plans. Use-It-Or-Lose-It: Most funds must be used by year-end (though some plans offer a grace period). Tax Advantages: Contributions are tax-free, reducing your taxable income. Employer-Controlled: FSAs are tied to your employer—changing jobs means leaving the funds behind. Both options have their perks, so it really depends on your personal healthcare needs and financial situation. Questions on either of these plans? We are here to help! https://lnkd.in/gSaUg68U #GroHR #HSA #FSA #EmployeeBenefits #HRTips

As we inch closer to the year’s end, it’s time to get ahead of the game with open enrollment prep. We know this can be a chaotic time, but with a little planning, we can turn stress into success! Here’s your must-do list: Update Those Benefits: Make sure your benefit plans are fresh and reflect the latest changes. A little review now can save a lot of headaches later! Start Communicating Early: Give your team a head start. Early communication means fewer last-minute questions and more confident decisions! Equip Your Managers: Your managers are the frontline support. Make sure they’re trained and ready to guide their teams through the process. Leverage Tech: Don’t let paper forms slow you down. Use online tools to streamline enrollment and make life easier for everyone. Need help reviewing your benefits? We’ve got you covered!
