SPEAKER

Jake Hubenak and Curtis Clay

PRESENTATION SUMMARY

“Set it and forget it” no longer works in employee benefits.

In this session, we’ll discuss the biggest benefits and wellness trends impacting employers in 2026 and what HR leaders should expect heading into 2027. From alternative funding arrangements to no-deductible plan designs to evolving contribution strategies, employers are searching for creative ways to control costs without sacrificing the employee experience.

We’ll also explore why benefits need to become a year-round experience — not just an open enrollment conversation. Using real examples and industry data, we’ll discuss employee education, engagement challenges, and how better communication can help employees make smarter healthcare decisions.

Attendees will walk away with practical ideas, discussion points, and strategies they can take back to their organizations immediately.
