Facilitating governance through CAP Track
JSL recently launched CAP Track, a governance management tool for Capital Accumulation Plans that provides secure online access for plan sponsors and JSL. Through direct links to the actual pooled fund details (not just the underlying fund information) the CAP Track service provides a full audit trail, independent investment review and itemized checklist fully documenting the governance process.
Using this system we can help you keep informed on all plan information—creating comprehensive and accurate performance reports to aid in the analysis of your plan and to effectively carry out your CAP strategy. In short, CAP Track will maximize the value of your plan, build a governance shield and allow you to focus on your business.

Are you worried your drug plan has a fever?
The rising cost of prescription drug claims is a hard pill for employers to swallow. A new prescription for drug plan management may be just what the doctor ordered.
1) Consider a new formulary. Whether mandatory generic substitution or a frozen formulary, it may be time to reconsider what your plan will cover.
2) Implement a multi-tier co-pay program. Customize your program through deductibles and co-pays to better meet the plan needs of your employees.
3) Seek pre-approval for prescriptions. Have physicians outline the medical need for a particular medication. In short, the prescription isn’t filled unless prior authorization is received.
4) Request maintenance and trial prescriptions. With maintenance programs, costs are lowered by filling ongoing prescriptions (such as the birth control pill) for longer periods of time, reducing dispensing fees. With trial prescriptions, small amounts are initially dispensed to assess effectiveness of the treatment. If successful, the full prescription is dispensed.
5) Launch a health spending account. These tax-free spending accounts work best when replacing part (not all) of a health benefits plan.
