Its services include insurance program design, claims data analysis, plan administration, and legislative compliance.

“To scale our business, we wanted to partner with a firm that viewed benefit program development through the same strategic lens that serves our clients. Risk Strategies presented both a great business fit for our clients and a cultural fit for our talented team that goes above and beyond in supporting clients every day.”
John Greenbaum, Risk Strategies’ national employee benefits practice leader, welcomed the addition of the group to Risk Strategies. “The Gehring Group brings an expert focus, unparalleled service philosophy and employs forward-thinking technologies that will enhance our clients’ experience and company’s specialist approach to risk,” he said. “
