"It's no secret that our healthcare system no longer works for consumers. Everyone knows costs are climbing at unsustainable rates and access to care isn't straightforward. Consumers feel lost and that they can't afford the care they need when they need it.
After spending years working for the largest benefit brokers in the world, I've noticed that these same frustrations exist as employers search for solutions to help their people and bottom line. I started Sero because I believe in realigning our healthcare system around individuals and businesses, not around insurance carriers and products.
Sero's agnostic, solutions first approach save businesses an average of 25% on their overall spend, streamline administration, while employees report a satisfaction score of 70 NPS, compared to the industry average of 20 NPS."

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. However, we feel the definition of a modern broker is starkly different than what most employers have experienced. Every benefits broker in the country can access insurance markets directly or through General Agents (GA's). We all have the same access to the same solutions. The MODERN broker goes beyond these prerequisites of access. We believe our value is providing education, advocacy, and strategies that deliver lower costs and a better experience by aligning with strategic partners. We broker strategic partnerships that are aligned to our clients, not insurance carriers.
Sero focuses on mid-market employers and their people because in our experience this segment has been underinformed on their ability to control costs and impact benefits in a positive manner. Many employers in this size range feel they are too small to self-fund their benefits. Sero specializes in self-funded solutions through Third-Party Administrators, Healthcare Captives and Strategic Partners.
Nearly 60% of employees in the U.S. are covered by a self-funded health plan through their employer. Many employers feel it is risky however, because they are under the impression their costs can explode. The truth is, while costs can fluctuate, there are known maximum annual costs stated contractually.
No. This is a common misconception. Most insurance contracts are "at will" and employers are free to move with 30, 60, or 90 days written notice of termination. We recommend an off anniversary change when the reasons to change are compelling enough to do so. Benefit programs should be monitored and evaluated throughout the year, not just at renewal.
No. An employer's benefit program is unaffected by a Broker of Record change. Often, Sero Benefits meets clients in their current program without changes and at the outset of our relationship we set our long-term strategy to meet the needs of our clients over the next 12, 24, and 36 months.
