What a Complete Benefits Package Looks Like
Depending on head count and budget, a package can include the following:
- Group health insurance, including major medical plans
- Dental insurance for preventive care, basic procedures and major services

- Group life insurance and voluntary supplemental life options
- Short-term and long-term disability coverage to financially protect employees’ income
Each component is selected to fit your company’s size, budget and workforce profile.
Navigating ACA Compliance and Open Enrollment
The Affordable Care Act imposes specific requirements on employers depending on their size and structure. Missing a deadline or misclassifying an employee can carry consequences that affect your entire workforce.
Sunstar Insurance of Arkansas brings more than 200 years of combined experience to the compliance side of group benefits, tracking regulatory updates, managing open enrollment timelines and explaining what each requirement means for a specific payroll and head count.
Coverage That Protects the Business
Workers’ compensation is legally required for most employers. It gives an employee who is hurt on the job or diagnosed with a work-related illness access to medical care, rehabilitation, retraining and disability benefits. It can also cover legal costs if the business is sued over a work-related injury or illness.
Employee benefits liability coverage is a specialized form of errors and omissions insurance. It protects the business financially if group benefits are mismanaged, and it provides employees with a backstop if something goes wrong in the administration of their coverage.
Why Work With an Independent Agent
