Auxiant

Auxiant is a Third Party Administrator (TPA) of self-funded benefit plans. Our specialty is customization, technological tools for clients and individuals, and cost-control and health management. We provide administration for over 60,000 employees from our administrative offices in Madison Wisconsin and Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our Sales offices are in Cedar Rapids, Iowa and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. TPAs are one of the best-kept secrets in the country. Many people do not know TPA firms exist-yet about 2/3 of all employee benefit plans in the U.S. use TPA services. As a TPA, we are dedicated to taking excellent care of the employer and the individuals covered under their employer-sponsored health plans. A health plan is a highly valued component of a company's employment package. With the rising costs of medical care, a health plan has also become a major employer expense. We know how important careful administration of an employer health plan is. We believe it is important to provide our plans with cost-management strategies, while providing plan participants with tools to help them deal with the complexities of health care purchasing. Auxiant's Medical Management programs help plan sponsors achieve the lowest medical spend. Auxiant is member of the Society of Professional Benefit Administrators (SPBA) and Society of Self Insured Administrators (SIIA).
