Hawthorne Benefit Technologies Launches "BeneTrac" - A Powerful New Internet-based Benefits Administration Package for Employers

 

San Diego, CA - June 15, 1999 - Hawthorne Benefit Technologies has launched a state-of-the-art benefit tracking system for employers in California called "BeneTrac."

The new product, which will be introduced in California this month, was designed to be used by human resource managers for paperless administration of their corporate benefits program. The BeneTrac program offers online enrollment, member eligibility reporting and customized management reports for human resource personnel.

BeneTrac is available only through insurance brokers and benefit consultants. It is one of the first products of its kind available to employers. "The system is easy to use, affordable, and can be custom configured for each client's needs," said Jerry Hawthorne, chief executive officer and founder of Hawthorne Benefit Technologies, Inc. "BeneTrac has the capacity to shave hours off the more tedious administration tasks, freeing up human resource personnel for additional projects."

With BeneTrac, employees may access their own benefits package, including plan descriptions, coverage and eligibility requirements. The program also offers online enrollment so that employees can monitor their own benefits plan and make changes as necessary. Dependents can be added or dropped. Name changes can be made and all of the information canbe instantly verified online for accuracy.

BeneTrac enables human resource departments to accomplish the following tasks online:

  • Establish customized benefit plans
  • Offer Internet enrollment into plans
  • Use the Internet to update employer data and to calculate eligibility dates for new employees
  • Devise customized reports using Microsoft Access™ and Microsoft Excel™
  • Instantly verify eligibility for those seeking urgent or emergency care

"BeneTrac is providing significant savings of time and expense and providing remote access to data," said Hawthorne. "We have invested in developing an ASP that offers the highest levels of security and anticipate that this will become a popular program for insurance brokers and human resource personnel alike."
