8. Introduction and System Overview
Key Messages

9. Employee Update Reviewing the
Employee Record
Once the introductory slides are
finished, the system takes you
directly into Step 1: Review
Personal Info.
< >
If the system is preloaded with
an employee census, you can
verify employee contact
information, including home
address, telephone numbers,
and e-mail. Which fields can be
updated by the agent is
determined and configured at
the time of case setup.
10. Dependent Update
Reviewing Dependent
Information
Here you can add, drop, or change
dependent information on the
< employee. >
A bank of behind-the-scenes logic is
at work applying the employer’s
business rules as they relate to
eligibility for core benefits. These
include maximum age to cover a
dependent child, full-time student
status age, all required fields
completed, only eligible dependents
allowed to be added, etc.
11. Dependent Update
Example of Business
Rule Applied
In this example, the employee
attempted to add a child with a birth
< date of 10/15/81. The system >
recognizes that the child is over the
maximum age for coverage and
alerts the employee.
The employee can either go back
and correct the age (if it was entered
incorrectly by mistake), or continue
without adding the dependent to his
or her coverage.
12. Quick Enroll Feature
Quick Enroll Saves Time
Once dependent information is verified
and updated, the system can be set up
to allow a Quick Enroll of the
employee’s prior year’s benefits

next plan year. New costs are also
calculated and shown on this screen.

the confirmation of elections screen at
the end of the enrollment
session.

When EOI Is Required

< >
keystroke errors.
Core+ Carrier Laptop
Software

deductions starting at the
beginning of the next plan
year.

Core+ automatically includes a library of built-in
reports and file downloads that you can run at
any time.
This is an example of one of the built-in reports,
< which is a Benefits Summary. The user can >
run statements individually by employee or in
batches for all employees depending on the
needs of the employer.
Statements are set up to fit perfectly in a No.10
window envelope with the name and home
address printed on the back side of the
statement and showing through the window
once it’s folded to size.
26. Examples of Built-In Reports
Here are examples of some of the other administrative reports that can be run by an
administrator at any time during the enrollment or after the enrollment is complete.

28. Online Reporting
Take a Look at the Big Picture
Once all associates have synchronized their
laptops with the central database, administrative
< users have access to a wide variety of real-time >
reports. These reports let you see aggregate
