Our take
Nava is changing the benefits brokerage space by bringing the perks of big company playbooks to small and medium-sized businesses. Its platform acts as a powerful search engine, giving employers access to over 600 providers and helping them discover the best plan for their teams.
While traditional brokers earn commissions through complex deals with Fortune 500 companies, Nava takes a different approach. It uses technology to craft personalized benefits plans for smaller employers and make it easy for employees to navigate their benefits. From understanding their options and booking appointments sot interpreting claims and solving billing issues, Nava simplifies the entire process.
One of Nava's challenges will be staying ahead of the curve by continuously adopting the latest innovations in healthcare benefits. To strengthen its position, the company has acquired i2, a healthcare benefits consulting firm, adding valuable expertise to its team. Additionally, Nava launched its "Members Experience" offering, which streamlines everything from open enrollment to ongoing member support, ensuring a smoother and more transparent benefits journey for employees.
