In this brief dialogue, Speaker B explains the core activities of an effective benefits broker for small businesses. The broker first meets with the business owner or decision‑maker to understand the organization’s specific needs. They then assess employee health situations—such as ongoing treatment or a recent premature birth that could generate high insurance claims—and discuss strategies to help the client navigate and manage these costly claims.
