Disclosure & Editorial Standards

EmployerBenefitsIQ.com is published by Corry Hull, REBC® CSFS®, a certified employee benefits consultant and Health Rosetta Advisor. The site provides analysis, tools, resources, and commentary on employer-sponsored health plans, pharmacy benefits management, ACA and ERISA compliance, and related topics.

Corry Hull provides consulting and brokerage services through BHC Insurance, an independent insurance agency. BHC Insurance has relationships with carriers, third-party administrators, and other vendors in the employee benefits market. These relationships are disclosed to clients as required by applicable law and professional standards.

EmployerBenefitsIQ.com is the editorial and educational platform associated with this practice. The site's content reflects Corry Hull's professional analysis and is not produced on behalf of any carrier, vendor, or industry organization.

Corry Hull works in the employee benefits industry and has commercial relationships with carriers, TPAs, and vendors. That context informs this site's perspective — it does not determine it. Content is not produced on behalf of any vendor, and no vendor pays for editorial coverage, placement, or recommendations.

What that means in practice: topics, tools, and resources are selected based on their usefulness to employers. When specific vendors or platforms are mentioned, it is because they are relevant to the topic — not because of any commercial arrangement. Corry's opinions are his own and may differ from the positions of carriers or vendors he works with professionally.

What it does not mean: this site does not claim to be free of commercial context. Corry is a practicing benefits consultant, not a journalist. Readers should weigh that context when evaluating recommendations, just as they would with any practitioner-authored resource.

If paid sponsorships or sponsored content are introduced in the future, they will be clearly labeled as such.

Corry Hull and BHC Insurance may receive compensation in connection with consulting and brokerage services, including:

• Commissions from carriers and vendors for placed coverage
• Consulting fees paid directly by employer clients
• Override or bonus compensation from carriers based on production volume
• Referral fees or revenue-sharing arrangements with service providers

All compensation is disclosed to clients as required by applicable law and professional standards, including the Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) broker compensation disclosure requirements. Clients may request a complete compensation disclosure at any time.

The existence of these compensation arrangements does not influence the editorial content published on EmployerBenefitsIQ.com.

Employers who submit benchmarking requests or complete the intake questionnaire should be aware of the following:

• Benchmarking data is used solely to prepare the requested analysis for the submitting employer.

• Benchmarking data may be reviewed by Corry Hull and staff at BHC Insurance in connection with preparing the analysis.
• Aggregate, anonymized benchmarking data may be used to improve the accuracy of future analyses.
• Benchmarking data is retained for a reasonable period to support follow-up analysis and is then deleted or anonymized.
