Health & Benefits Architecture
Protecting human capital with the same discipline, precision, and intentionality used to preserve financial capital.
At RM Legacy Group, we architect comprehensive health and benefits programs that go far beyond traditional group coverage. From conventional group health and workers compensation to advanced self-funded strategies, every program is designed to improve access to care, strengthen retention, and bring long-term cost discipline to the employer.
For employers who demand more, we integrate the CHAMP Plan as an innovative, ACA-compliant healthcare solution within a broader benefits architecture, helping provide covered front-line care, payroll tax efficiency, and a stronger employee experience through a structured employer-sponsored framework.
Why Employers Choose RM Legacy
Cost Discipline Intelligent plan design that systematically eliminates waste, reduces unnecessary spend, and relieves major medical premium pressure before it becomes a business problem.
Structured Network Access Access to covered front-line care through the First Health network for physician office visits, urgent care, preventive services, and formulary prescriptions, with clear plan parameters and a simpler member experience.
Actionable Data Transparent, real-time reporting transforms healthcare spend into strategic intelligence, empowering leadership to make informed decisions well before renewal.
Care Navigation A white-glove member experience helps guide employees to the right care, at the right time, virtually or in person, with support designed to reduce friction and improve engagement.
Built-In Compliance Every program is structured with ERISA, COBRA, and HIPAA considerations in mind, helping employers maintain administrative discipline and plan integrity at every level.
Result: Better benefits. Stronger retention. A plan built to endure.
A Strategy, Not a Product
What makes this approach different is that we do not start with a product. We start with the employer’s structure, workforce needs, contribution strategy, and long-term objectives, then build a benefits architecture designed to improve access to care, strengthen retention, and bring more discipline to future renewals. That process creates a strategy that is more intentional, more transparent, and better suited to employers who expect real structure behind every recommendation.

Health Benefits Architecture
At RM Legacy Group, we design employer benefits strategies that strengthen retention, expand access to care, and bring long-term cost discipline to every level of the organization. Where appropriate, we integrate the CHAMP Plan into the broader benefits architecture as a structured front-line care and health engagement layer that complements existing coverage rather than replacing it.
The CHAMP Plan combines a pre-tax minimum essential coverage component with a post-tax health population management component, helping employers improve day-to-day access to care, create payroll tax efficiency, and reduce unnecessary pressure on major medical utilization through a more intentional benefits structure.
Our process is structured and deliberate. We begin by reviewing the current plan, identifying cost drivers, and building a benefits architecture that improves the employee experience while giving leadership the visibility needed to make more confident renewal decisions.
How CHAMP Fits Into the Benefits Stack
The CHAMP Plan is designed to work alongside an employer’s broader benefits strategy, not replace it. It strengthens the day-to-day care layer by improving access to covered front-line services, supporting payroll tax efficiency, and helping reduce unnecessary pressure on major medical utilization through a more intentional plan structure.
For employers, that means everyday care can be handled more efficiently while the broader benefits architecture remains aligned with cost control, employee usability, and long-term plan performance.
Program Pillars
Comprehensive Coverage (Medical • Dental • Vision • Rx)
We architect a complete benefits stack built around major medical and supplemental layers, designed to improve utilization, strengthen retention, and deliver cost control without sacrificing the quality of coverage your workforce expects.
Network-Based Front-Line Care
Employees gain access to covered physician office visits, urgent care support, preventive services, and formulary prescriptions through the First Health network, creating a simpler experience around everyday healthcare needs.
Telemedicine & Behavioral Health
Virtual access to licensed physicians and therapists delivers day-to-day care support and mental wellness resources directly to employees, improving convenience while reducing unnecessary friction around care access.
Pharmacy Strategy
Employees receive access to covered formulary prescription support designed to reduce friction, improve consistency, and better support routine medication needs within the broader benefits strategy.
Compliance & Governance
Full COBRA, HIPAA, and ERISA support is coordinated through experienced partners, backed by structured documentation, administrative oversight, and compliance discipline at every level.
Financial Protection (Stop-Loss)
When self-funded structures are used, specific and aggregate stop-loss protection can help shield the employer from catastrophic and high-volume claims exposure while improving cost stability over time.
Implementation Path (60–90 Days)
Discovery & Planning
• Define employer objectives, workforce needs, and implementation priorities.
• Outline the recommended benefits framework and identify immediate opportunities for improvement.
Build & Structure
• Align stop-loss strategy, effective dates, and administrative workflows where applicable.
• Configure telemedicine, care navigation, and supporting benefit layers for launch readiness.
Launch & Educate
• Support employer and employee education with a clear rollout process.
• Go live with reporting cadence, service support, and ongoing stewardship in place.
Ongoing Stewardship
Validation That Matters
The broader CHAMP strategy has been reviewed by outside ERISA counsel through Fraser Stryker, approved unanimously by Miami-Dade County for pilot evaluation as a voluntary employee benefit offering, and positioned for use in recognized employer-sponsored environments that demand administrative precision and compliance discipline.
That combination of independent legal review, public-sector approval, and structured employer adoption helps ensure the strategy is built for credible, long-term implementation rather than generic product placement.
Common Questions
Does the CHAMP Plan replace major medical coverage?
No. The CHAMP Plan is designed to function as a structured front-line care and health engagement layer within a broader benefits architecture, complementing existing coverage rather than replacing it. The goal is to improve access to everyday care, support employee engagement, and help reduce unnecessary pressure on major medical utilization through a more intentional plan structure.
Can the CHAMP Plan be combined with our current health plan?
Yes. The CHAMP Plan can be combined with an employer’s existing health plan and positioned within a broader benefits strategy to strengthen day-to-day care access, improve plan usability, and support long-term cost discipline. This allows employers to enhance the front-line care layer without dismantling the rest of the benefits structure already in place.
Do employees have to change providers or medical care?
No. Employees who voluntarily enroll in the CHAMP Plan can continue using the providers and medical care they already receive through their traditional coverage. The plan is designed to add additional options for everyday care and cost containment, but it does not require employees to abandon existing provider relationships.
What types of employers are the best fit for this strategy?
This approach is often well suited for founder-led businesses, growth-stage teams, multi-location employers, and organizations seeking more discipline around long-term healthcare spend. It is especially attractive for employers that want to improve everyday care access, support retention, and build a more intentional strategy heading into future renewals.
How long does implementation usually take?
Most implementations can be structured within a 60–90 day roadmap, depending on workforce complexity, enrollment timing, contribution strategy, and administrative readiness. The process typically begins with census review, plan design, and objective setting, then moves into buildout, communication, launch, and ongoing stewardship.
What improves for employees?
Employees gain a simpler day-to-day healthcare experience through covered front-line care, urgent care access through the First Health network, 24/7 virtual support, and formulary prescription access. The result is a benefits experience that is easier to understand, easier to use, and more supportive around everyday healthcare needs.
