Abra Benefits Messenger eliminates the costly errors associated with duplicate data entry and ‘missed enrollments’ both during annual open enrollment periods and for employee changes throughout the year. Supporting virtually all benefits carriers, it automatically extracts the benefits data from the Abra HR database, re-formats it to meet the specific requirements of each benefit carrier, and securely transmits it to the carriers over the Internet. Abra Benefits Messenger makes it easy to switch carriers when you need to, giving you more flexibility to find the most cost-effective insurance plans for your company.

Simple and Flexible Communication with Carriers
Simplify the process of communicating with benefits carriers by allowing Abra Benefits Messenger to manage all of the setup and details for you. It automatically reformats the data already in your Abra HR system and sends it to your carriers on your behalf.

Accuracy
Automatically extract employee enrollment data from the Abra HR database, which eliminates the chance of errors. Abra Benefits Messenger saves you money by ensuring that you are not charged for terminated or ineligible employees.
