Benegration, Inc. administers the Municipal Benefits Services (“MBS”) Trust that provides health and welfare employee benefit programs. Our MBS Services Team consists of seasoned employee benefit professionals who average over 25 years of experience.
Municipal Benefits Services (“MBS”), established in 1968 as the Municipal Employers Insurance Trust (“MEIT”), provides high quality health and welfare employee benefit programs and related administrative services to over 325 municipalities, authorities, and councils of government representing more than 8,000 employees in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide valuable and cost-effective employee benefit programs and related services to local governments through group purchasing with a strong focus on effective risk management strategies, and superior client service for our members and their employees.
Our MBS Model
The MBS model is built upon a strong knowledge of government and its specialized needs. To maintain a solid understanding of the ongoing needs of our members, MBS is governed by an active board of seven experienced municipal managers and related professionals plus three additional managers from participating employers serving as an advisory committee.
MBS delivers group purchasing power by aggregating all our clients together as though we are one large employer. The medical and dental plans are self-insured but operate like fully insured plans. By pooling similar employee demographics, risks become more predictable. Using this approach, MBS is able to smooth out experience fluctuations for rate consistency and budgeting which lowers risks for employers.
