The national broker partners will be supported by a dedicated broker success team, a first in the industry, providing oversight and strategic alignment of all shared clients for each Premier Broker. With the support of a dedicated team, the national partners can help their clients create tailored benefits solutions that improve their employees' health, financial wellness and security.

"The continued success of the Premier Broker Program aligns strategically with our vision to unify the entire industry on a single benefits platform so that everyone wins," states Benefitfocus President & CEO, Ray August. "We're thrilled to welcome USI and CBIZ as national Premier Brokers, further demonstrating Benefitfocus' continued commitment to align with the brokerage community for the success of our mutual customers."

All Premier Broker partners have access to Benefitfocus' BrokerPlace 365 portal, a proprietary tool available only for Premier Brokers.
