Empyrean Benefit Solutions Adds ARAG® as an Integrated Insurance Provider within Empyrean’s Benefits Administration System

PR Web

Houston, Texas (PRWEB) May 17, 2016

Empyrean Benefit Solutions, Inc., the Hi-Touch Benefits Administration company, announced today that ARAG, a leader in legal insurance, is now available on the Empyrean Platform, a leading and configurable technology platform for benefits administration. This integration will give Empyrean's clients ready-access to ARAG legal insurance – which in addition to legal insurance includes Identity Theft Protection, financial planning, and caregiving services. The ARAG addition continues to expand the number of voluntary benefit options available to Empyrean clients.

"We're proud to work with a long-serving and established company like ARAG," said Tiffaney Perhala, Director, Channel Sales at Empyrean. "Providing more options to employees and clients grows the value of what both of our companies deliver – in terms of expanded options, potential cost savings, and seamlessly integrated operations and technology."

For more than 80 years, ARAG has helped individuals and their families when something in life turns into a legal issue – like a dispute with a contractor, a traffic ticket or the need for estate planning. Members have access to a nationwide network of more than 11,000 attorneys who can advise and represent members on legal problems and review or prepare documents.

"Joining Empyrean allows ARAG to reach even more consumers and provide affordable legal services to all," said Dennis Healy, ARAG Chief Sales Officer. "We are excited to help brokers and their clients reduce stress and absenteeism in the workplace by empowering employees to solve their legal issues."
