CLIENT PROFILE
Stellar Partners, Inc. (formerly known as Fenton Hill Florida) is a real success story.
Susan Stackhouse, president, has built a very successful retail operation with 15 locations in 5 states. These include news and gift stores, duty free shops and the newest addition is a concept called Mindworks.
As Susan’s business grew, so did her employee benefits problems. “We almost needed a separate storage room for the various provider booklets and forms, and it was difficult for us to answer an employee’s question on their specific plan without first researching what plan, rate, and network the employee was covered by,” she said.
Leslie Saunders Insurance and Marketing International began working with Stellar Partners about two years ago to assist with recruitment, retention and administration on a national medical program. The current plan at that time had multiple plans (PPO, HMO and Indemnity), multiple rates, and multiple employee contributions. It was very difficult for the employer to forecast costs and plan design options when they were basically at the mercy of the providers.
LSIMI was able to work with Stellar Partners to produce a plan to fit their needs. As Susan says: “Not only does our new plan significantly reduce our administrative expense, we were also able to expand our coverage and our costs have actually been less than our old plan“.
Not only was this a win-win situation for Stellar Partners and Leslie Saunders Insurance and Marketing International, but Leslie and Susan operate a currency exchange together in a business partnership at Fort Myers Airport.
