Allstate Unveils Flexible Healthcare Solutions With Key Partnerships

The Allstate Corporation’s ALL Allstate Health Solutions, a division of ALL, recently teamed up with Intuit QuickBooks, Thatch, and Ambetter Health to make healthcare coverage more flexible. This collaboration introduces Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements, offering businesses an innovative way to reimburse employees for individual health plans, tax-free.

This move bodes well for Allstate Health Solutions as it will leverage QuickBooks’ payroll subscription services, an efficient platform powered by Thatch, to simplify healthcare administration. Employees can select tailored plans within their employer’s budget, and any leftover budget can be used for medical expenses. Customers using QuickBooks services can access ALL’s Health Solutions group health insurance platform. ALL will be able to reach small and mid-sized businesses using QuickBooks payroll services, adding to its top-line growth in the future.

Ambetter Health will also roll out a new product under this collaboration, Ambetter Health Solutions, in select states by 2025. Allstate’s Health and Benefits business premium and contract charges improved 5.2% year over year to $487 million in the third quarter of 2024. Greater enrollment should move this figure upward in the future.

This partnership marks a significant step forward for Allstate Health Solutions in addressing the evolving needs of businesses and employees. Streamlined operations and reduced administrative overhead via Thatch ensure cost-efficiency and should boost margins in the future. Moves like this should aid ALL’s Health and Benefits division, whose adjusted net income declined 46.4% year over year in the third quarter.

Allstate shares have gained 15.8% in the past six months compared with the industry’s 12.8% rise.
