Nava

Nava Benefits is a modern healthcare benefits brokerage leveraging technology and benefits innovation to tackle the rising costs of healthcare. Our mission is to bring high-quality, affordable healthcare to all Americans. Nava makes benefits easy — for HR professionals to administer, and for employees to choose and use the right healthcare plans. By replicating the buying approach of America's biggest employers, we cut out the hidden fees and markups packed into most healthcare plans, saving employers 8-22% without reducing benefits for their employees. The best part? It's all backed by the industry's first money-back performance guarantee.

Gift of College

Gift of College helps address one of the most significant employee concerns (the cost of higher education) with two easy-to-implement approaches: 1) Auto payroll deduction and optional employer match technology for contributions toward employee-selected 529 college savings, 529 ABLE and/or student loan accounts, and 2) Gift of College gift cards (redeemable into student loan and 529 accounts) -- for rewards & recognition, employee milestones, new babies and more. With tax-free student loan repayment via IRC 127, now is the perfect time.

Gift of College educational tools enable employees (vs. the HR/Benefits team) to choose for themselves which 529 plan to use. Support with saving for college, addressing disability expenses, and repaying student loans can help with recruitment, retention and financial wellness, and support diversity, equity and inclusion given the disproportionate impact that student loan debt has on women and persons of color.
