Employee Benefits Administration
End enrollment errors, missed deadlines, and benefits admin chaos — with Catapult HR managing your entire benefits operation.
Benefits Admin That Doesn’t Fall on HR’s Desk
Employee benefits are your second-largest labor cost — and one of the highest-stakes compliance areas in HR. Yet most HR teams are managing enrollment, carrier changes, ACA filings, COBRA notices, and spending accounts manually. Catapult HR takes the entire benefits function off your plate — so HR can focus on people, not paperwork.
All Benefits Services

Show employees the full value of their compensation package — base pay, benefits, retirement, and perks — in one clear, branded statement.
ACA Compliance
IRS 1094-C / 1095-C filing, affordability calculations, and employer mandate tracking — managed to keep you compliant and penalty-free.

Why HR Teams Trust Catapult HR With Benefits
Because getting benefits wrong costs more than getting help.
Deadline-Driven Compliance
COBRA notices, ACA filings, open enrollment deadlines — we track every regulatory clock so you never face a penalty for a missed date.
Direct Carrier Connections
EDI transmission to your carriers means enrollment changes flow automatically — no manual entry, no coverage gaps, no angry calls from employees.
Your HR Team Gets Time Back
Benefits administration typically consumes 30–40% of an HR team’s bandwidth. We take it off your plate — completely — so you can do higher-value work.
“Before Catapult, I was manually entering every benefits change into our carrier portals and praying nothing fell through the cracks during open enrollment. Now it’s automated, it’s verified, and I’ve got the reporting to prove it. I genuinely don’t know how I managed this alone before.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is benefits administration included in a Catapult HR membership?
Benefits administration services are available as add-ons for Catapult HR members and as standalone services. Membership gives you access to discounted rates on benefits admin along with HR advisory, compliance, and training services. See our membership plans for details.
What benefits programs can Catapult HR administer?
We handle the full benefits stack: medical, dental, vision, life, disability, voluntary benefits, FSA/HSA/HRA spending accounts, ICHRA, COBRA, 401(k)/retirement coordination, ACA compliance filings, EDI carrier transmission, and Total Rewards Statements.
How is Catapult HR different from a PEO for benefits?
With a PEO, your employees join the PEO’s master plan — you lose control over plan design and carrier relationships. With Catapult HR, you keep your own plans and carrier contracts. We simply administer them on your behalf, giving you the operational relief without surrendering plan flexibility or your employer identity.
Can you work with our existing broker?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with existing brokers — they handle plan selection and renewal negotiations, we handle day-to-day administration. We’re happy to operate alongside your current broker relationship.
Which organizations does Catapult HR serve?
Catapult serves employers nationwide, with a focus on mid-size organizations (25–500 employees) that need professional benefits administration without the cost of a fully in-house benefits team.
