With Gilsbar's 360Ú Approach to Benefit Plan Management, No Crystal Ball is Needed
Gilsbar, Inc., a leading third party administrator and insurance services provider, developed a service delivery model (360Ú Benefit Plan Management SM) two and a half years ago that removes the barriers to controlling healthcare costs for employers. This thought-leading approach is resonating throughout the country as proven by Gilsbar's record setting growth over the last 12 months.
What It Means To Be A Third Party Administrator
A third party administrator situation may arise when there is no executor appointed in a will for a deceased person, or if the executor has died, become physically or mentally incompetent, refused to carry out the duties of executor, or is in any other way unable to carry out the responsibilities of administrator of the estate in question. Other people can then make application to the courts to become the administrator of the estate and responsible for the assets and liabilities of the estate. This is usually one or more of the people who are named as beneficiaries of the estate, but may include other interested or affected parties.
