Regulatory Reality Check for Employers
<p>In this episode of The<i> </i>Benefits Breakdown, the team is joined by Jessie Campbell, National Practice Leader for Brown & Brown’s Regulatory and Legislative Strategy Group, to break down the growing fiduciary and compliance challenges facing employers. Jessie explains how standards once focused on retirement plans are now being applied to health and welfare benefits, increasing expectations around governance, documentation, and oversight. </p> <p>The discussion covers practical steps employers can take, including formalizing benefits committees, benchmarking fees, understanding vendor compensation, and carefully managing emerging risk areas such as voluntary benefits, GLP-1 weight loss drugs, and wellness surcharges. The key takeaway is that many employers are already doing the right things, but clear documentation, consistent communication, and disciplined processes are now essential to reducing fiduciary risk. </p> <p>Connect with the hosts:</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jared-bowcutt-321a856/" target="_blank">Jared Bowcutt</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessa-longnecker-9899301/" target="_blank">Vanessa Longnecker</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamccompton/" target="_blank">Adam Compton</a> </p>

Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Small Changes with Big Impact
<p>In this episode of the Benefits Breakdown podcast, the team explores women’s health across the full lifespan, moving beyond family building to address heart health, mental health, menopause, chronic conditions, and health disparities. Ashley Diaz shares data‑driven insights showing why women’s heart health, access to preventive care, and navigation support are critical issues for employers, particularly as risk factors and inequities continue to rise. </p> <p>The discussion highlights how small, intentional benefit design changes, such as improved access, on‑site or virtual screenings, advocacy services, and population segmentation, can drive meaningful health and financial outcomes. The conversation reinforces that supporting women’s health is both the right thing to do for employees and a strategic opportunity for employers to improve engagement, retention, productivity, and long‑term cost management. </p> <p>Connect with the hosts:</p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jared-bowcutt-321a856/" target="_blank">Jared Bowcutt</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessa-longnecker-9899301/" target="_blank">Vanessa Longnecker</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamccompton/" target="_blank">Adam Compton</a> </p>
