A member organization reached out to me asking if I know what other member organizations are providing in relation to mental health benefits either within their health plan or through other benefits/vendors. Following is the note they invited me to share with the MASP member organizations to learn what others are doing and/or have found helpful:

"As we continue to evaluate what staff need from a health plan, we continue to hear a rising emphasis on strong and accessible mental health benefits. We are interested in hearing how you support mental health in your health plans or through other benefits/vendors. Are there ways that you offer additional or increased benefits outside of in-network and in-person mental health counseling?"

Thanks for any insights or resources that you're willing to…

Peter Guinther, HR Administrator, for BIC US World Missions reached out with a question that he gave me permission to push out via the Forum to get input from other MASP members who have international workers. Peter noted the following:

"BIC U.S. World Missions is considering switching our Workers Compensation coverage for our international missionaries from the Hartford to Brotherhood Mutual. The coverage seems to be very expensive for very little practical use, other than keeping legally compliant."
