Friends with Employee Benefits · 2025-11-04 · 49 min
Employers are spending more than ever on healthcare, yet many benefits go underused and employees remain unsure how to navigate them. The problem isn’t the benefits themselves, but the outdated ways they’re managed and communicated. In this episode, host Jeff Cross talks with Rohan D’Souza, Co-Founder & CEO of Avante, about how AI is transforming benefits. Together, they explore how AI-powered real-time employee guidance and continuous insight into benefit usage and sentiment can help organizations lower costs, improve utilization, and build smarter strategies - including how we here at OneDigital have implemented it for our own employee population. If you’re looking for practical ways to make your benefits work harder through the power of AI - for both your people and your bottom line - this episode is for you. Music By: Colin Cross Music
